Was it not a spectacle/example/appeasement rolled into one for the masses that were required to come watch? Just guessing here.

Actually, "the masses’ were limited to just men (maybe males as I don’t remember if boys were permitted) and those that identified as men.

JK, you were or you weren’t, none of this maybe 🤷‍♀️ nonsense.

And I don’t know about any requirements to attend, tho since it was a spectacle for the gods, attendance may have been invitation only - those deemed worthy of the gods.
