The real problems with MOS came from how they later tried to use it as the starting point for a DC Shared Universe when it was meant to be standalone and the mentions of stuff like Wayne Enterprises just being an Easter Egg.

When BvS made mention of stuff like WW being around and Clark suddenly caring about Batman, that's when more retroactive problems with MOS started (why didn't Clark care back in MOS if Batman had been around for years? Why didn't WW do anything about the Kryptonian invasion?). But as a standalone there are fewer problems.

He didn't know about Batman in Man of Steel. He didn't even become a reporter until the very end of the movie and then found out about him for the first time in Batman vs Superman.

He was dealing with his own stuff.
A lot of crap goes on that doesn't affect everyone.

Hell, we just fricken disasters where other agencies sent help. We're in the top 10 largest cities in the US & we sent a whole 50 responders.

Too many heroes in one spot get in one another's way.

Didn't Snyder claim Aquaman saved Kal in MoS? How Kal got to the shore from that platform?

As for why Wonder Woman didn't do anything in Man of Steel can apply to comics in general. Individual heroes are always dealing with big problems in comics without other heroes showing up to help all the time.

She withdrew from the world.

Why the puck don't LA cops show up for our crap here?

Cops are notoriously picky about jurisdictions. County Sheriffs work their areas & not SDPD's areas.

I was involved in an accident pulling off an exit ramp onto a city street. I called the cops to report it & was told it was CHP's problem, not SDPD.

Where were The Avengers when the Dark Elves were wrecking London or when Hydra were using helicarriors to almost kill a million people in Washington?

Scattered, remember?
Dealing with their own crap.

Narcotics offenders have to register with the law enforcement agency having jurisdiction over where they reside. Doesn't mean the one located closest to them. Unincorporated areas register with the Sheriffs who are located in Kearny Mesa in San Diego.

They must tell the agency they registered with within 10 days when they move out of the jurisdiction, but have 30 days to tell the new agency they have moved into the new jurisdiction.

They can't just expect all the agencies to share the info even though it would be easier.

So literally a sheriff can leave their headquarters, see a crime, but all they can do is a citizen's arrest. It's not where they have authority.
