This is great! And makes the perfect point. I'm glad someone wrote this. It's very insightful.
The Doctor always, somehow, turns things we don't expect into weapons to protect people with. His ability to have fun and goof around while doing it makes him no less effective, makes him even moreso, as you've so insightfully pointed out.
He's not a goofball. He's much more clever than that.
But he does like to have fun. And what's more fun that poking holes in a villain's pretentions? :D
