I've been reading these forums for a long time. Especially during Tom King's run and after BvS came out. Batman fans have been skewering those stories in particular for making Bruce look stupid and I've lost count of the number of times I've see people hate on the Batfamily for robbing Bruce of his social skills. Tim and Oracle in particular have been accused of being used to dumb down Bruce and Cassandra is hated by many for being a better fighter than Bruce.
I don't know what forums you follow, but most Batman fans do not want him to be weaker or dumber.
Hell, Wonder Woman fans actually insist on her being the only flying brick in the DCU that isn't bulletproof.
