The henchmen were right in the middle of the flood and continued to fight Batman. Ironman 3 was more realistic when a goon dropped their weapon and said they didn’t even like the job.
I thought the point was they were in the rafters and therefore wouldn’t die, and then we’re all armed with scoped rifles aimed at the “corrupt” politicians they viewed as a problem they were justified in forcibly removing. All of that feels very accurate to the Riddlers initial plans - kill “the corrupt people in charge” and “sacrifice yourself for the greater good” (by getting captured by the police like the Riddler does).
These were fanatics, they were extremists. In Ironman 3 they were henchmen who came off as mercenaries, people not devote to the cause and their simply to make money. Not that Ironman 3 should really be used as a great example with their use of the 10 rings only to retcon that so like… We’re they henchmen mercs or were they devote ninja soldiers or…? Still, pretty different situation.
