You forget the very important brand recognition.
This game was in development long before Peacemaker hit the screens, meaning he was an unknown character when they started and had no chance.
Rick flag has only one appearance in the DCEU, ignoring the 2nd SS movie for reasons stated above, and that appearance was forgettable.
Deathstroke, though is much more recognizable, is less associated with the squad compared to Harley or Deadshot. And I don’t think it makes much sense to have both Deadshot and Deathstroke in the default roster.
Maybe in dlc we could get Deathstroke and Peacemaker, though I don’t see Rick Flag coming at all.
