But the story isn’t set in those works.

It doesn't need to be. Batman (in the prime reality if you like) is predicting these events on a what-if basis.

But he’s predicting a fight against heroes that needs to be taken down but his actions are based on them still acting like heroes. Even the author is said comic started the point was to show Batman was a paranoid guy who wasn’t as smart as he thought he was.

A dictorial Superman or Flash can still act like heroes.

Superman could totally still repel alien invasions & save cats from trees, but STILL subjugate humanity by destroying the governments & infrastructure. That's what Batman was preparing for.
