And Bruce dredged up a lot of the bad stuff anyway ("Don't pretend you're sorry he's dead, you were jealous because I adopted him!" sort of undoes any work Dick/Jason would have managed to do)
That's one of the scenes I don't count in my personal canon. I like the Year Three version much better, and since Year Three happened in Batman and "you were jealous" took place in Teen Titans, Year Three even has the priority, sort of. "You were jealous" is about as wrong as Bruce telling Dick he'd taken Jason as Robin because he missed Dick.
There was a Nightwing issue - around the Last Laugh storyline - where Dick is looking at a picture of Jason and him at the mountains in civilian clothes. So yeah, stabs at a relationship did happen.
Given that there was Bruce between them, it'd be interesting to learn more about how they related together, except that I have very little faith in DC not making Jason look bad and insensitive and not getting Bruce to make Dick look better in comparison.
