** In his attempts to gain revenge on the Doctor, [[spoiler: Adam]] uses a vast amount of resources to find and recruit others the Doctor has "wronged". To this end, he revives and recruits the Animus...and plants it in the Victorian Era, where, if the Doctor failed, the Animus would have conquered Earth and rewritten his own history. Likewise, if he knew the Doctor's history, then how did he expect employing ''the Master'' would turn out well for him?
*** Could be explained as Adam over-estimating his own research; he may have just done enough to justify his own hatred of the Doctor without fully researching details such as what the Master was truly capable of.
** The Fifth Doctor gets this too, for landing, recharging, and exiting his TARDIS in the middle of ''an active battlefield''. [[IdiotBall Considering that Five knows how to pilot his TARDIS, and he had three companions with him, why didn't he just park it somewhere safe, or take provisions to keep them safe?]]
** The Overseers. They have highly advanced technology, have the human population under their control as organ donars to sustain their bodies, and a ''single'' scratch is enough to kill one of them...and yet they don't have any form of protection against harm. When one's rule over the planet is defeated by merely telling the people of such a weakness, one has to wonder why they never invested in PoweredArmor of any description.
*** May be justified by their sheer arrogance, mixed in with a philosophy of feigning power so that the humans never suspected just how weak they were.
