If The DCEU Was Structured Like The MCU

What if the DCEU was structured like the MCU? This is a premise that's been covered by several YouTubers, such as the Black Lion and MrEliMac, and other people on FanCast, such as nehemyluntumusangana. I wanted to throw my own interpretation out there, as I've had a loose one in the Notes app on my phone for a couple years now. The only rule I've set myself is that I have to stick to the exact release schedule of the real MCU - I'm not allowed to make any modifications. Other than that, I have free reign over this universe. Every DC film and TV show released in real life pre-2008 still happened, excluding Batman Begins and Superman Returns, but including shows that began before 2008 but continued airing until post 2008. This covers every project released during DC Studios' Apokolips Saga and Crisis Saga.
