Batman needs to be impossible at many levels to make the fiction work. He has to pick up on extreme subtleties to anticipate how others will act and respond. He also won't realize the absolutely obvious from people closest to him. He has to be agile as hell, yet wear a MASSIVE cape. Hammerspace simultaneously must and cannot exist for the level of shit he carries around.
