Raised in Haly’s Circus as a skilled trapeze artist, Dick Grayson studied under Batman for years as the first Robin until maturing into the hero called Nightwing. He would eventually assume his mentor’s role for a short term, but recently reclaimed the identity of Nightwing upon Bruce Wayne's return.
That adaptation of the character was lighter than Batman: The Animated Series, but as we're seeing with Batman: The Brave and the Bold, he can be light hearted and still carry the weight of his parents' death with him. And we've seen many times that producers will amalgamate characters to create something they want to work with. Look at Tim Drake from Batman: The Animated Series. That character was a mix of Jason Todd and Tim Drake. So if they gave Bruce a Dick Grayson type attitude in The Batman on purpose, that wouldn't surprise me.
