The only reason they can do Gotham is because it's a "prequel" show. They would never be allowed to use a fully costumed adult Batman on TV with so many many consecutive Batman films lined up.

Lots of Arrow characters were killed off because they would be appearing in DCEU, like Deadshot and Amanda Waller, while guys like Captain Boomerang have never been heard of after his appearance in season 3. Because of pony fetish Captain Boomerang.
