It shouldn't mean anything to the dead prior incarnations. By the very nature of their explorations, the Doctors will eventually intersect as Burn said. This already existed without rebranding a "doctor verse". But the previous 13 all have an expiration point attached to that (technically 12, as the 2nd Doctor didn't die as such) and that's ok. I really hope this isn't a further extension of Moffat's ridiculous "everybody lives" nonsense.

But see, wibbly wobbly timey wimey, there already is more than one Doctor running around.

From the universe's point of view, yes. Any Doctor could show up at any given time. But from the Doctor's own timeline, and the POV of the show, each incarnation follows linearly one after the other.

Eccleston wouldn't be front and centre if this were a BBC promotion. Big Finish, maybe.

Honestly, Eccleston remains my favourite Nu Who Doctor, since his debut. Although I am (very slowly) working my way through the Big Finish 9th Doctor boxsets. He's still got it, too.
