Along similar lines, I've seen TONS of people say "What?! Batman shoots people with GUNS in this movie?!?" -- Yes, sort of -- but if you were paying attention and not looking for reasons to irrationally hate it, you'd have noticed that was during a post-apocalyptic vision of the future, where it makes sense that Batman has likely abandoned his previous morality. He doesn't shoot anybody with a gun in the actual, non-dream timeline of the movie (unless you count when he shoots the guys flamethrower tank, which he did to avert that scary future timeline).'
And also, to answer your question more directly, people just aren't very smart. I hadn't thought of it quite as in-depth as your post presented, but for an adult to analyze that scene with such elementary surface level thinking (Their moms have the same name! That's it!) shows they just aren't particularly bright.

It's the same as the "Batman shoots people!" complaint... it's a dream sequence. That's also the scene where superman lasers a few people in half.

Didn't Batman shoot a bunch of people when he was trying to get the crate and he chases them in his Batmobile? I seem to remember thinking he'd for sure killed a whole bunch of those bad guys. Not all of them with guns mind you. Some would've died horrible deaths when their car whipped at a high velocity inverted onto another car and so on and so forth.
