Killing both Tritovores was lazy writing. In the Confidential Davies talks about how if the Tritovores had lived it made things too complex because they'd get back to Earth, UNIT would want them, etc.
Yes, because it was already such a multi-layered and complex story, another layer would have killed it. Dude, if you want to be a lazy writer, that's fine, but don't make excuses!
I think if a Tritovore had lived it would have made things way more interesting. People on the bus freaking, UNIT freaking and waving guns about, and the Doctor stepping in both times to calm the situation in different ways. And the Doctor could get it back home. Which would have been awesome, because he says no to Christina, but yes to the giant fly!
