Bruce and Ollie were both better characters before being becoming absolute jerks in the post-COIE era.
Good family members turning bad (sometimes outright evil, sometimes just jerkish) irritates me. We had Wally's parents post-COIE. Alura during the latter post-COIE time. Jor-El and Zor-El currently. The changeup from Ira West to abusive William West. Sardath. Catherine Todd and Crystal Brown weren't the best mothers originally, to say the least, but definitely took a turn for the worse in New 52.
I don't like every hero to have a villain with personal connections. A lot of people find the more personal connection more dramatic. I did too - the first couple times I saw it. But now, it’s like every hero has to have a villain that was their sibling/friend/lover/mentor/student/etc. or either killed their parents or otherwise inflicted great trauma on them in childhood and it’s just ridiculous. It's even more irritating when it's a retcon, because I saw how they met, how their enmity developed and now it's all replaced by something else, mostly to further the angst.
