For Tim, any desire to get back home and help is more to do with redemption than leaving loose ends. Bruce and Barbara wouldn't expect it of him, chasing down Harley, cleaning up any traps left in the ruins. They wouldn't expect--or allow--him to put on the costume at all.
Of course it's still there, still a thing that exists. Bruce will have it in a case by now, and someone else will come along and assume Robin died. Maybe he did.
Maybe he did even if Tim gets home in one piece, any more sane than he left it. "I think if you wanted to sail out along the edges of this thing, you could meet it all halfway," he suggests, trying not to sink deeper into the thought. His own fingers draw a ragged line of a shore around his crossed legs. "Puts you back on the water, and gets information for the people here, maybe information that saves them."
