Why would Dr. Manhattan want to nerf the DC universe?
All his nerfings have something to do with relationships. Breaking up romances, erasing friendships, and wiping out legacies.
Was this just an experiment or something more?
It was his autism

I'm willing to bet money Johns has Morrison helping him with this. That guy basically wrote Manhattan as several different characters.

Morrison helping Johns with Rebirth? WTF are you talking about?
Who's to say that it was Manhattan?Where the fuck has Captain Atom been this entire goddamn time? My bet's on a new take of the Monarch stuff, without the Hawk copout.

in order to save his world he had to take from the dc universe what his lacked. friendship and love.

There was friendship and love in Watchmen. Doomsday was just looming over everyone

He wanted to see if a more cynical world could still be heroic. At least that's my guess.

I think it has to do with Manhattan's revelation regarding Laurie's origin that will have motivated his actions in erasing a lot of these character's relationships with each other; it's to see if they will be reformed, if their love for each other can beat the odds of the cold, unfeeling mathematics of quantum probability. It would be so unlikely in that sense it would be "a miracle".
