* NotTheFallThatKillsYou: Justified with regards to the ship. [=McKay=] mentions specifically that while they can survive reentry (which the ship was presumably designed to handle), they'd be vaporised on impact (which it presumably wasn't designed to handle without maneuvering thrusters to slow it down).

Even when they manage to coax enough power out of the remaining thrusters to put it on a glide path, all of them are knocked out by the force of the impact.

* DidntThinksThrough: Todd's crucial mistake is putting infected Wraith into stasis. It doesn't occur to him until it's too late that because the Wraith are plugged right into the Hive Ship and fluids are exchanged during hibernation, his men would unwittingly pass on the disease to the ship itself and infect its systems. Justified, as Todd was ill, desperate, and not thinking clearly.

* XanatosGambit: This is Sheppard's logic behind letting Todd leave Atlantis at the end of the episode despite the security risk he poses to the Expedition. He feels Todd's likely going to succumb to his illness. If he doesn't, and despite his anger at Todd's actuons during "First Contact" and "The Lost Tribe", Sheppard also is pragmatic enough to recognize that Todd is still their only real ally/contact among the Wraith.
