AEW fans and always using NXT as their comparable when a talent does something stupid seem to forget the purpose of NXT.

NXT is not developmental in the same way it once was. They constantly send veterans down to work with the younger talent to boost ratings, and you're not moving up the card unless you're not green. They're also being pumped as their own brand with their own audience, and their own niche.
Why do you think Jade Cargill hasn't even done a stint in NXT or had a single match yet? Why would indie darlings like Dragon Lee have to be in NXT?
It's development for character work. The Performance Center is for training.
