Normally I'd agree, but I'm torn in this case. Morrison has said that he never intended to introduce Damian as a permanent fixture of the DCU, and has always planned on killing him off, putting everything back in the toy box, so to speak, when he leaves the Batman universe so other writers wouldn't have to be forced to deal with Batman suddenly having a son. That's pretty much what everyone predicted when Damian was introduced, that the "Batman has a son" thing wouldn't last long. Except it did, far longer than Morrison ever planned to be on Batman, and in the time it took for Morrison to leave, the rest of the DCU had to adapt to Damian existing. So Morrison's stuck between sticking to his original plan, which would now generate a very different reaction than if he did it five years ago, or forever be the guy who fundamentally changed Batman's status quo and then bounced.

I have a suspicion that he would've been happier if his Batman Inc was allowed to be out of continuity and that the New 52 books just ignored Damian's existence when they rebooted.
