Batch mode avoids asking (a) obvious questions (e.g. "do you really want to do blahblahblah?"); and (b) questions that GPG doesn't need to ask (e.g. "what's your trust value of key blahblahblah?"), assuming safe answers instead. As the manual says, all operations which require questions with less-obvious answers that GPG can't answer in a safe way independently are simply not allowed in batch mode.
