Because he's too nice to say:

  1. Grammers alcohol, cocaine, and other addictions made production difficult on the first show.

  2. Grammer is pro-trump and anti-lgbtq among lots of other things while Hyde actually has a heart

"I wanted to do other things" isn't the answer people are looking for, because the question is "why don't you want to do this" the "I stead of other things" is obviously implied.

If he had said "I wanted to do other things" but then had a totally open calendar, that would have been telling.

In this case, it seems like he was legit doing other things.

Here's the full quote:

“I never really wanted to go back,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s not like I said, ‘Oh, I don’t ever want to do that again.’ I loved every moment. It was that I wanted to do other things. And when we got into real talks about the reboot, I had just started on the ‘Julia’ TV show and was working on a musical and going to do another musical, not this one. And I just thought, ‘I don’t want to be committed to a show and not be able to do stuff like this.’ And I also thought, ‘They don’t actually need me.’ Frasier has moved on to a new world. They have new characters. And I think I’m right. It’s doing great. And the new people they have are great.”

Just for anyone looking to jump to conclusions.
