Exactly.
Batman's no killing isn't even a limitation, so much as it is him being beyond the limitation of needing to resort to killing.
While I understand what they were aiming for with including it to be part of how Bruce has strayed too far from his original mission, to me it is exactly the same as the way the Daredevil movie tackled to notion of crossing that line, vs the Daredevil Season 1.
They could have made Bruce's entire struggle about whether or not to cross that line, and actually kill Superman.
They still could have kept the "he's gone too far" arc without any of the killing, especially considering the main way they show it, and how he, maybe, changes at the end, via the branding.
The fact that you could cut almost every single Bat-kill from this film, and it wouldn't change thing, just goes to prove how pointless it was.
That's a great idea.
