Well, I don't know, I thought Rose was okay at arguing (or at least bending him around her little finger).
To my understanding, they were trying to get Rome-the-city, not Rome-the-empire. And instead they got Pompeii, which as you said is within one but not the other. (Maybe they were reading the map upside down, who knows.) Though, yeah - I love Donna to death, but you could probably go to Athens and she'd be all set, as long as she could yell at random citizens and do a spot of hat shopping.
