About 10 years - which is similar to the Bruce/Dick age gap isn't it?
More to the point, if Cass is already 18 wouldn't she be a legal adult? Also, if pre-Flashpoint continuity is back in play, then Bruce already adopted her anyway.
Didn't it straight up contradict events in Nightwing?

I think we are back to Pre-Flashpoint timetable in which Dick was a child when Bruce adopted him (or so the latest Nightwing run shows), instead of 16 like The New 52 retconned. So he would have been somewhere around 8-12 when the Graysons were killed. If Bruce became Batman at 25, worked as Batman for a few years, then took Dick in, the difference is closer to 20 years, a gap wide-enough for Bruce to be one generation above/solidly a father figure.
This is also evident because Damian, who was conceived when Bruce was already Batman, is already 14.
That's not really how ages work in comics, especially not with like tow timeline reboots in between.
Tim was 16 pre rebirth and still 16 post rebirth, even with Damian ageing by 3 years.
Duke was 16 before rebirth and even now with Damian being 4 years older, he is still a minor.
Barbara was 21 in the new 52 and and shortly before future state she was said to be i her late 20s.
When it comes to Cass I guess she is still supposed to be a teenager at this point, and probably about the same age as Tim, Steph, and Duke.
Oh was she late 20s? I miss that. If that's the case then yeah, her age was rebooted.
Tim's rebooted age just happen to coincide with the last year of New 52 and the first year of Rebirth, so I just count them as one year so what I meant that from Batman and Robin Eternal when his 16 year old first mentioned until Rebirth it's one year.
Outside of story, that how it works yeah, but in story, even with the age being held up or jumped forward, they still have to went through the years themselves as a person, so every time it changed, how much time passed and when or how things happened changed as well.
That's the thinking that goes into how I adjusted when Damian aged and what he experienced at what age based on the info I have. The point of view being, the years have to pass normally to the character's memory, so what happened when?
Anyway back to topic, if she's late 20s and there's no update yet, then she remains a late 20s + 1 year with Damian and Dick aging, making her and Cass have around 10 years age difference
Apparently, Tynion said about Batgirl's joker war arc that "the linear order of the comics do not apply at this point of Joker War, but will be important in future issues" (https://screenrant.com/batgirl-joker...ned-dc-comics/)
Anyway, Batgirl issue 50 ending makes no sense with the current continuity. It ends with Babs being happy together with Jason Bard and mad at Dick (for being amnesic, apparently), which completely contradicts everything going on in the current Nightwing book.
Babs/ Dick conflict apparently wasn't resolved in "last stories of the multiverse", as Taylor tweeted that he sees this story as an Elseworld story.
So... again, Babs Batgirl's ending doesn't work too well with the current continuity.
But back to Cass... as long as Babs stays about 25-29 years old, she can't really adopt a teenager.
But did they really had any real close interaction in the last years?
If anything I wouldn't mind if Cass and Babs lived together. Overall I wouldn't mind if they want a elsewhere story with Babs adopted Cass if they aren't going to change the age gap. That Babs works at a library and teaches Cass to read and speech.
I mean overall if they at least have it be that she and cass have a good relationship would be good

I also prefer a straight cape but that's an interesting take on it .
