See, when I think of just some guy, I think more of someone like MCU's Scott Lang. He has a certain skill set, but not a unique one, he's not rich, he's not a genius or even all that intuitive, he's not rich, he's not a fighter, he just blunders into being Ant-Man with someone else's tech.

And I think the money thing is pretty important, since it can be such a huge advantage (it's a big part of what makes someone like Lex Luthor the threat he is to Superman). That, alongside the training, planning, and research Batman does for his chosen vigilante role, makes him somewhat exceptional and formidable, in my mind, even without any hyperintelligence or trauma-induced behavior.

But I think I get what you mean, that you don't like it when the writers make Batman overpowered (the smartest, the toughest, etc.) because they feel like that levels the playing field when he's playing with other superheroes.
