This is a beautiful exploration of that tough decision. I'd been so, so mad at the Dotor for taking away her choice until someone turned it around (I think via a poll) and put it as "if you had to wipe someone's amazing memories or let them die, which would you do" and I had to admit I wouldn't let that person die. I like that Rose has the same reaction we do as viewers -- outrage at first, followed by empathy with the Doctor's decision.
I also like that they fight -- I do think she and this Doctor will fight more, a la the Ninth Doctor. I like the idea of her being less starstruck with him than she was in Season 2. Feisty is good!
