"We don't want to be a Silurian"... WHY THE HELL NOT? It's already established in Who lore that Silurians are native to Earth. Ruby stepping on a butterfly starting a chain of events leading to Silurians being the dominant species on modern day earth would have been a brilliant nod to continuity.

The more you reuse existing species the smaller the universe feels. Not to mention that Doctor Who is about diversity. A nod to continuity is cheap, but a showcase of diversity takes imagination.

I think it's more implied that the ones in tubes are fetuses. The actual babies would normally be held and loved by the staff. Because the actual babies we do see are out and about, and did have caring staff at one time. The tube ones probably can not survive outside them yet.
