To reiterate, personally I think crowbarring Diana into World War II is a dumb idea that makes a mess of her supporting cast, adds a needless complication to her origin/backstory, cheapens her character, ultimately adds nothing of value, and is never treated with the gravity it warrants.
Even the bragging rights of "She's the in-universe first superhero" is utterly meaningless because DC also wants to maintain Superman as the benchmark of all heroes. That's not a gripe against him, but it's a disservice to Diana making it so she came first, but didn't really matter until Superman came along.
