Yeah, but when the TARDIS lands in Deadly Assassin, it lands *in the Citadel* where there's massive security. Don't see any reason for the Doctor's family home to have that kind of security, not least when it's on an entirely different continent to the Citadel.
And the TARDIS being able to land on Gallifrey in the past is something I'm just going to overlook as one of those little irksome things that don't in any way detract from my overall enjoyment of the episode. I do the same with the little irksome things in Blink - and for me, this episode was as good as Blink. I liked the way that the episode shows up so many of Clara's strengths, and also the relationship between Clara and Twelve - her calling him a stick insect, and him boasting of his "dad skills" just because he sent Rupert to sleep (which contrasted nicely with Clara's genuine mothering skills).
