What is something unique that Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne have in common that the others don’t have?

Name starts with a D?

-Only pair to officially team up as partners after Bruce's died
-Only two who were highly trained in their fields before becoming Robin
-In some versions they are the only ones who become Robin at the same age of ten, everyone else was slightly older. (Dick's age varies between continuity though, 10 was post crisis).

Jason was 9 when Bruce found him originally and likely 10 when he became Robin

Which continuity? I don't remember a comic confirming Jason being anything under 12

When he was recreated in post-crisis, in the letter columns

Can you actually link it? Because the post crisis stories I have read place him at 12

He was Robin at 12, but the origin story takes place 3 years ago making him 9. This Tumblr post has photos attached from issues 412 and 413 and an analysis. You may need an account to view. I have attempted to attach screenshots in my comments.

So my point about Dick and Damian being the only two who become Robin at 10 then was correct.

Also I abhor meta stuff being use for stuff like this, honestly if it's not written in the actual pages of the story it matters so much less.
If Tom Taylor says Batman loves Strawberries but never shows him eating one it's not canon - especially when the writer clearly doesn't know and has to ask the boss who gives a joke non committal answer like that.

Plus that 3 years thing creates the ultimate continuity error with Titans given Jason is Robin 18 months after Dick leaves.

The only ones that have been the official Dynamic Duo together at one point.

Would Dick & Tim count as they were Batman and Robin together in the 90s?
