Babs was someone who, when faced with the abrupt end of her life's calling due to disability, was able to have the determination and ingenuity to find a way to pursue it in a different fashion that worked around that disability. And while wish-fulfillment is great, wish-fulfillment that still allows the disability to exist is far more satisfying, especially when it's such a rarity in that genre.

...To draw a comparison, this wasn't the same as Batman recovering from getting his back broken. It was like Batman's parents coming back from the dead.

This. These characters aren't perfect reflections of how people in the real world would behave any more than they are magical beings completely divorced from reality. They are not real people but they represent various aspects of real life. That means that sometimes we have to handwave the fact that characters may have problems that logically should not exist in their fictional world because otherwise we would lose the ability to represent those problems in that fictional world. Not every work of fiction needs to represent all people and all possible problems, but when you have a character who did represent a certain aspect of real life for a long time and that character gets changed so the problem is now gone, that's going to sting, no matter how much logical sense it makes in-universe.
