And while the answer is "he's still Dick Grayson", it's kind of tempered by the fact that Earth-2 Dick never moved out of his dad's basement and Got A Real Job.
Don't think Bats would've approved of that so much.

(The fact that Dick was still Robin even into adulthood is just really... weird and unsettling.
...
still, at least he wasn't running around in bare legs and scaly panties in his forties...)

Earth-2 Dick stayed Robin because his relationship with Bruce never broke down, but he moved out of Gotham and became a US Ambassador.

I don't think Bruce would ever NOT be proud of Dick's life choices.

What about the Geoff Johns Earth-2 Dick who for some reason Helena is in / trying to start a relationship with?

'cuz that just ain't right...

You mean the recent Earth-2 series, where Dick and Helena have no mutual backstory because Dick wasn't raised by Bruce, so a relationship isn't an issue?

Believe me, you want uncomfortable, check this out

No, the Geoff Johns Earth-2, in the Geoff Johns run of Justice Society of America, written by Geoff Johns.
Where Power Girl was an unlikable, paranoid jerkwad, the Justice Society had merged with Infinity Inc., and for reasons known only to Geoff Johns, Helena and Dick were in a relationship.

So it was a Geoff Johns comic then... I wasn't sure from your answer, you really do need to be clearer about these things. ;)

Never read that one, rather glad I didn't...

It was during that whole Gog / Magog storyline.

Kind of alarmed to find out the Batcest wasn't Geoff's idea...

I don't think the current Earth 2 is bad... just... I think the constant writer changes made it hard for the story to be consistent.
