DC being so blatant about the 'spoiler' makes it seem like it was entirely intentional. They want everyone to know, kinda like Marvel's publicity over Captain America's death and DC with Batman's in RIP.
I'm guessing Harper Row will probably fill that void.
They are acceptable collateral damage. Brightly colored, scantily clad young boys belong out there on the streets, risking life and limb in the fight against crime.And someone should really step in and tell Bruce to stop putting children in danger.
If DC wants to make this have interesting repercussions, they'd have Bruce Wayne lose it and take him closer to the edge than he's ever been before, and ultimately have Jason Todd be the one who saves him and keeps him from falling all the way.
That's what I'd do anyway.
