So he was an E.T. then. An E.T. from somewhere 'we' had never heard

True, but he was related to ETs we’d seen before:
 
ROSE: Is it me or is he a bit Slitheen?
 
DOCTOR: Not from Raxacoricofallapatorius, are you?
 
VICTOR: No, I'm not. They're swine. I spit on them. I was born on
their twin planet.
 
DOCTOR: Really? What's the twin planet of Raxacoricofallapatorius?
 
VICTOR: Clom.
 
DOCTOR: Clom.
 
VICTOR: Clom. Yes

Still a terrible villain.
 

True.  IMHO it would’ve been much better if RTD had understood and
gone with the OG version from the kid’s competition entry.  Each
time the Absorbaloff absorbed someone, it should’ve grown bigger
and bigger until it was larger than a double-decker bus.

Imagine the scene.  People fleeing in terror as the giant monster
strides towards them.  But one man doesn’t flee.  The Doctor,
standing his ground, facing the threat.

Much better than what RTD actually gave us.
