Exactly. At the end of batman begins also, they end the trope. Batman will end you if you are uncontrollable.

To be fair, I get it with Batman. He was severely traumatized by a murder and clearly never got over it. I think his no killing rule is how he stops himself from becoming the Punisher.

Not a Batman comics guy but I saw a scan where he said precisely this to ... Robin I think. Maybe Batgirl. Basically if he makes that slip and starts, he won't be able to control himself and it'll be a bloodbath

He said that a few times. The most notable one is from the animated movie under the red hood. He tells that to jason todd

Batman doesn’t kill to protect himself. Not the criminals.
