Not that I want to argue against digits like that but
>It doesn't go hard into the body horror/AI doom stuff
I feel like Beyond does a pretty good job with this, at least half of the villains have some level of body horror going on, but AI stuff is pretty limited (really only Vance, though Spellbinder has hints of it)
The trouble is it's not that dissimilar to how the world was in BTAS and STAS, people aren't really being crushed under the suffocating weight of megacorps or the government because Wayne-Powers isn't much worse than LexCorp, and a lot of the terrible things that can happen to people in cyberpunkland could just as easily happen during the height of Bruce's career
I understand that we've got the benefit of experiencing an endless stream of cyberpunk and dystopia since Beyond (fictional and otherwise) but really, Neo Gotham's living standards are pretty good and the 'evils' of technology don't really survive past the episode a problem gets introduced in
If Beyond were more serialised or they just fleshed out the setting more I think it'd get real dark real easily, but as it stands, it's definitely on the cheerier side of the genre's spectrum (still not very cheery, but a lot less grim than others)
At the very least my rule of thumb is that if the setting has a functioning, natural ecosystem, it can't be that grim
