I've long thought that Rose was about as compassionate as Turlough. Which still gives her a one-up on C'rizz, but that's not hard. I think most of the Rose=compassionate statements seem to come from interviews and a few lines from the Doctor, not from anything Rose has actually done.
I also don't think that it's a bad thing that she's not that compassionate. I wish they'd played with her flaws more instead of pretending they weren't there. It would have been way more interesting and not as facepalmy.
I was so excited about Rose in Turn Left. The Rose shown in Turn Left was everything I'd always hoped Rose would be. She was in charge and solving problems and really being the Doctor. Something S1 Rose always seemed to have the potential to do. Then tSE/JE came about and my hopes were dashed. Maybe the Rose from Turn Left was actually from yet another universe? I read a fic along those lines and it was brilliant.
I thought the saddest thing about Mickey leaving the alt!verse was his statement about there being nothing for him there anymore. I got the impression that he and Jackie were really close, but that was about it. Poor guy.
