The Pilot isn't dependent in Friend from the Future to make sense.

This never amounts to anything in The Pilot, but Friend from the Future has the Doctor looking at the paper before announcing that they have to go back to 2017.

That's not true. In The Pilot, on their way off-world Nardole asks the Doctor about the vault and the Doctor pulls out his psychic paper and says he will get a message if there's any trouble.
