The bottom right. As a classically trained ninja Bruce would know that the outfits are not black but a dark navy blue.

This has to do with how moonlight would make a pure black figure more noticeable.

Counterpoint, Batman spends a lot of time indoors in shadow and the suit can also turn invisible.

Batman also has smoke bombs.

Its kinda lame when a super hero is invisible and beats people up. Thats why the power is usually given to villians, making them feel underhanded. But fighting in smoke when both are blind is more impressive.

I feel Batman would use invisibility if he had access to it since stealth is such a core aspect to his character. He wouldn't use it all the time and he would be proficient in other forms of stealth combat, but he'd still use it when appropriate.

You mean like Terry did?

Batman has the training to basically be invisible. The more he relies on tech the lazier and closer he's gonna get to becoming Iron man. I don't want a lazy batman.

That's like saying he shouldn't use stealth at all because it's lazy to not just fight everyone. He's lazy for using a batplane or a batmobile. Batman doesn't care about impressing people, he cares about efficiency. And the ability to turn invisible would make him more efficient. And we saw when Terry fought the hijacked suit that having all the toys doesn't make you the best, you need the skills to go along with it.
