In the episode "The Laughing Bat" of The Batman Penguin brings this up when confronting the Joker: You don't see me barging in on your gas-all-of-Gotham schemes, do you? It is called professional courtesy.
Like Superman Stays Out of Gotham, but for villains. Many times, a villain has an Evil Plan that other villains would be quite upset by, but they never do anything about it. Like Ultron is always trying to kill all organic life but Magneto, who's whole shtick is about protecting mutants, never bothers to say "haha, no" and disassemble him.
