If the idea with MoS was to evetually bring together everyone into the Justice League to then compete with Marvel's MCU, can you explain the rationale of having a middle aged Batman whose had a tough life and is now killing random thugs?

He's not killing random thugs. From what I saw he was blowing up vehicles and people while on missions.

I would think that their reasoning for using the older Batman is the same reason that they used the name Dark Knight in movies and have Superman and Batman fighting in the first place. They think that Frank Miller's Batman comics are the best selling and most famous versions, so they're latching onto them wherever they can. They wanted to match their Man of Steel Superman against the Dark Knight Returns Batman.

For my money, that's a distinction with no difference and one that Batman (as we've always known him) wouldn't dare support.

I get that...but what sense does it make to you? There's no time to breath as you've already started way late in the game...and are now doing so with heroes that seem to have huge disparities between what most people known them to be.
