I don't know what to tell you. I don't care how long it's been going on, it's an element of his story that just doesn't work for me. I find it detracts from the core concept for his character, especially when adaptations boil his character down to that being essentially his sole defining traits.

"Penchant to Dream" (a great depiction of Bruce's deductive abilities - did you know it's impossible for most people to actually read in a dream?)
 

Never said you had to like it, just said you cannot try to brush it off as a "drop in the bucket" of the characters existence, it's been a quarter of his run if you go by your Tower Of Babble date, or 33 years if you go by when Miller did TDKR and turned the character darker which then caught on and launched Batman into the #1 spot f the DC pantheon where he has stayed since your almost talking half his run.

There are lots of things I dislike about Batman's interpretations over the years, him having a flaw isn't one of them however, without that he's one of the most blatant Gary Sue's in pop culture, the degree they push this flaw however is ridiculous, I prefer it being like how Arrow portrays Oliver at times, where his obsession with the mission and such causes him to push people away but not intentionally, and then when he becomes aware of it he recognises his faults, with Batman it often seems more likely he'll be proven right and whoever he pissed off will recognise this and side with him, or just still be pissed and walk away.

As for the dream thing yeah I knew about that, I think it's everyone though, well I guess people with photographic memories could potentially reread stuff in a dream, as they already have the full detailed memory of the book, but you couldn't read anything new in a dream because well in short the dream isn't real, like a lot of things once you get told this it becomes obvious, sort of like a lot of sayings, they are so dumb if you think about it, like it's it weird how when you're looking for something it's always in the last place you look, because as Lee Evans once said "Well yes, I wouldn't look, find them, then keep FUCKING LOOKING!?!", or someone calling your house phone and asking "hey where are you?" or "Are you at home right now?" like what sort of bloody questions are these? you phoned my fucking house where else am I going to be? Moldova?
