Why can't the Surfer get the Nullifier himself? IMO, there's no
permissible resolution without The Watcher, because all options distort
the canon in some way.

Having the Torch get the Nullifier follows the Canon, lets one of the
FF actually "defeat" Galactus, and sets up one premise for the next
movie where the Torch is affected by his cosmic voyage through
Negative Zone (in other words, some character development).
