Also, I learned that setting a Batman movie mostly during the day is just not a very good idea.
Why was it a bad idea?

Besides all the characters you listed the only side plot involved levitt, what other side plots were there?

I don't know what depth they could have added to any of the mentioned characters to make the film stronger.

Everybody's entire life is explained more or less during the film, you really wanted more alfred exposition?

I just saw the film for a second time today and am enthused, don't feel obligated to respond
