Is this niche? Is this kind of random? Yes.
Whenever I see these fanfiction or headcannons that surround this concept that Bruce cannot do certain things because of how the Gotham “Elite” will react. Tim giving these speeches to his siblings about the etiquette they must follow or whatever.
I think in a way this stems from the fact that because we know Bruce is a good person, well supposed to be.
In our minds, it makes sense that he has to listen to the other rich people because we’re used to like power dynamics in that way, right? Of course, the good guy has to pander to these rich bad guys.
However, realistically, that is not at all how this would work.
Actually, this is also a part of my problem sometimes with like people calling Jason a street rat at galas or people calling Tim a slur. 
Sure that probably happens behind closed doors.
But you are not going to say a single thing that could at all of reach the most powerful man in Gotham‘s ears.
He can dance on many tables as he wants because at the end of the day, he is a billionaire with his hands in every single aspect of Gotham well respected by almost every individual and knows how big his dick is.
Bruce does not follow etiquette, his children do not have to either he makes the fucking rules.
They want to trash every single gala ever they damn well can they are fucking Wayne’s.
You are not going to shit talk his children when he can snap his fingers and You live in a cardboard box.
Gotham itself will turn against you.
I do love exploring a very manipulative Drake Way Tim.
But the reasoning for him being like that is the Drakes did not ever have half the power Bruce did.
Bruce Wayne can do whatever the fuck he wants. His Heir’s can do whatever the fuck they want.
Eventually, Tim also gets that privilege.
* this was so random, but I was reminded of this thought because I just saw something that was like kind of in the lines of like Bruce schooling, his children on how they have to act at a gala. Which no.
If Dick wants to climb a goddamn chandelier, Bruce is not saying shit. God forbid someone else does he will buy your fucking life 10 times over.
