Probably because they have to be similar to the Royal Flush Gang in some way without being too stupid and i feel that this was a good compromise.

When i was watching this show's first season, i found that it was very similar to the Nolan trilogy because it was a more realistic take to the characters, that all fell out the window by S2.
