Batman isn't built to be paired with other super hero's in a live action flick because he's just a man in a black costume. An in the day time he looks goofy as hell in that suit. Superman can get away with rocking a goofy ass suit because 1. he's an alien and 2. he has super powers. The Flash uniform serves a purpose. Wonder Woman is a god and so on a so forth.
In comics and cartoons the playing field is more even. You can only do but so much in the movies.
And he can't even be the black widow or Hawkeye of the group because... it diminishes the bat brand which is even worse
Batman is technically the only super hero where you can make a movie and it be as realistic as possible. You don't even have to call it a comic book movie.
I mean look that this scene
He was rendered helpless. You can blame Batman for people dying as much as Superman. He couldn't save nobody let alone break up Zod and Supe.
