I remember talking to somebody a few months ago who was explaining how Tim was just so superior and I just had to say look, this whole paragraph is just promoting your favorite character over others and putting them down to make him better. Which is so unnecessary. I don't mind the basic idea of "Tim might become Batman" because it can be an interesting dynamic to have the older kid be different from the dad etc. But sometimes it really quickly morphs into Dick being unnecessary, like a failed experiment on the way to Tim the True Heir and True Son.

It's not only dismissing Dick's character but Tim's too, really, just making him this hyper-competent robot that he isn't.

But exactly, sometimes it's like people can't juggle the awesome. And that just means less awesome for everyone and no one wants that.
