Listen, I usually only do this, when something gets stupid to a point, where I have to roll my eyes. I stopped reading right there and ignored the rest of your post. I just don't care.Unless Batman has some weird super dense and heavy alien plates in his home gym, that regular old plate does not weigh 500 LBS – no matter what one dumb artist wrote there. That's not how mass works. And bad art does not create over the top feats.
In another comic (not sure if canon) Batman stated that his maximum LEG PRESS (not squat) is at 2,500 LBS. That's somewhat higher than our world record. And here is an example of the steroidest steroid junky to ever steroid steroids into his steroid body Ronnie Coleman doing leg presses with 2300 LBS:

If you max out at 2,500 leg press (which is still inhumanly comic book peak human like), you are not going to bench press 2000 LBS. As I said: bad art does not dictate anything.
Cool. Ignore it if you want, that doesn't change the fact that it's there in a canon comic. The comic and the facts do not require your belief to be true.
I can do all manner of headcanon, and say sure, Batman, who has access to all manner of alien and earthbound tech, can definitely create super dense weight plates if he wants to...hell, to bring it full circle to this thread, much like Proxima Midnight, he too has lifted stars:
Microscopic, sure, but still stellar. Hey, maybe he too can replicate Superman's feat........
But that digresses. You wanting to ignore it because 'human!!!!' doesn't mean much when most of what he does, hell, even the concept of Batman, is beyond humans.
I brought him up because under YOUR logic, we have someone like Batsy being able to bench significant weights for days on end ,based purely on him being able to fight for days, and based on him being able to lift significantly more than the weight in question before. Pieced together evidence, when ACTUAL evidence is sorely lacking.
