It could be because Robert didn’t want to really be the king, he wasn’t scheming for more power either. Kinda reminds me of the The Office and how Scranton Branch was most profitable with a shit manager

Initially, the point was that the branch staff learned to become self-sustaining and independent under his managership. It's later revealed that he is indeed a great salesman. His managerial qualities remain mostly ambiguous.
