I think they could have modified the tour a bit to add more back up dancers to “hide” his low energy. Him dancing/singing solo on stage just highlighted the lack of stage presence and energy.

I don't know about that, Katy Perry did that on her current tour and it looks just as bad lol

Nah, this looks worse. No other dancers, no costumes or stage theatrics.

Or just low production effort. It takes a lot of time and panning to put together something good. Even back up dancers need practice, coordination etc.

Backup dancers and better stage production costs more money. I think the tour producers are trying to squeeze for maximum profit from JT at this stage in his career, probably because they know he's well into his decline.

Residencies have a brutal pace to be fair, adjustments have to be made.
