...his first Grammy win, received for producing the Music by John Williams doc that won the best music film category. [...] ...a Tony (for producing A Strange Loop)...

Not that any of this matters, but 'producer' credits shouldn't count towards EGOT winner status.

Producer can be an important role.

Rogan, I assume. He has a show about a movie studio where he plays a producer or something.

yeah, sorry. i just watched it so it was super fresh in mah mind. there’s a whole episode about him wanting to be thanked in an awards acceptance speech because producers can’t win awards.

Producer is a key creative role.

Yeah, this seems like a stretch.

I feel like once the EGOT became a thing, voters would feel pressured into giving celebrities the awards they do not have to finish their collection.

This was particularly obvious with Audrey Hepburn, who got an Emmy and a Grammy right after she died, as if they realised they made an oopsy by not giving her the full set before.
