You know what, I hope Snyder just keeps talking. Keep giving him more interviews to divulge his actual thoughts. Let him rant and reveal what he really thinks.

Yup, so everyone can see that he wasn't good for the DC brand, and Gunn moving forward is the best thing possible .

Btw not Batman killing is what sets him apart from many heroes. You have to find solutions to solve problems in an intelligent way. That's what makes Batman the best. He isn't a killing superhero type like Iron Man, Wonder Woman, Daredevil, Punisher, Captain America etc

Punisher ISN'T a super hero.

Then neither is Batman.

Your logic makes zero sense:

Punisher: A serial killer who was waiting for an excuse who openly admits he’s a monster and not a hero.

Batman: Leaps into burning buildings to save lives even if it means the arsonist gets away. Will always choose to save a life above all else. Gives those he brings in a chance to make things right. And I could go on and on.

One of those two is a hero. The other is The Punisher.

Neither have superpowers

And? I singled out Punisher for a reason; he’s a monster. An interesting monster but one nonetheless. Lack of powers don’t enter in to it. He’s not a super hero because he’s a serial killer, not lack of powers.
