I kid...you're absolutely right though. A lot is said of Snyder's character development, but the fact of the matter is that DC wanted to get rich quick and didnt want to put in the work.
So they skipped all the buildup and went straight to the tentpoles.

This^ is the main reason why the MCU get's a lot more leeway with their movies. They took the time to build it up from the very beginning, fleshing out characters and relationships while taking the chance that comic book movies may not be the next big thing.
Once the MCU was off and running the DCEU wanted to jump on the momentum of CBM's created by the MCU without doing any of the heavy lifting required to build out a proper DCEU. This is the main reason why, in my opinion, their movies have in large part failed to meet expectations.
Throw everyone into the movie! Have terrible scripts! But the fights are awesome!!!
Nahh give me the years long character arcs and story building that the MCU offers over the over-the-top action and diluted storylines that DCEU offers every time.
