Well, in reality it was more like a "dismembering ~~body~~planet parts by brute force" kind of situation followed by putting the dying remains just out of reach in orbit afterwards.

And all because Jupiter most likely didn't do its patrol-job properly.

So, I question the wholesomeness of the whole event, but welcome the final outcome 4 billion years later nonetheless ;-)

Yeah the scene should be more like Jupiter as a baseball pitcher throwing an astroid at the earth to "give" them a moon.

To give a relevant quote by the great Douglas Adams:

"Many were increasingly of the opinion that they'd all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no one should ever have left the oceans."

I wholeheartedly agree.
