It works for the MOS suit, just like it does for the all black bat suits, cause its a dark suit. It does work for those, but if they're going to be using a lighter grey, I think it does need something to break it up, unless they go for a dark grey that's almost black.
Despite, being a darker shade of blue than we've seen on Superman previously, the MOS suit was not nearly as dark as any of the previous black Batsuits on film.

In terms of a grey batsuit, there's no reason to believe it will be such a light grey that it will even need to be "broken up". I do imagine it will be a slightly darker shade of grey, but still not almost black. Take a look at the difference between steel grey and just...grey.

An important thing to remember is that with a grey suit, Batman's black cape/cowl/gloves/boots/belt will serve as contrast points to break up the grey body suit, much like Superman's red cape and boots served to contrast the dark blue suit. It's not as if black trunks are the only thing that can break up the grey on Batman.
