Just realized the ending of 'The Dark Knight' could have been way more interesting

I was rewatching it last night and the whole 'Harvey Dent cover-up' felt forced. What if Batman had actually taken the blame for the murders, but then left Gotham for good? The city would have to face its own corruption without a symbol to hide behind. It would have been a darker, more honest ending about real change. Anyone have a better alternate take on that final scene?

I always thought the cover-up was necessary, but your version is way more compelling.

Cover-ups just make the truth harder to find later.
