Perhaps because I don't really get the point of most roasts. At least not modern ones. My memory is that back in the 1970s, the classic roasts typically consisted of entertainment people being roasted by other entertainment people, most of whom were good, long-time friends of the roast target. It was for the most part just good natured ribbing. The insults didn't go too far.
Why would Brady subject himself to a roast by professional comedians, most of whom I assume he does not really know on a personal level? Yeah, Netflix undoubtedly paid him a boatload of money but Brady isn't exactly starving. It seems to me that most of the roasters are just there to see who can make the most cruel, crude and/or over-the-top comment. Largely for personal attention / PR reasons. The welfare of humanity is always the alibi of tyrants.

I agree with your assessment in general, but Nikki Glaser was ruthless and killed it.
