I agree with you that players need to have something they keep coming back to in a loop or else your audience won't follow the groove, but I think you need to hear what you want to play in your head and getting it from your brain to, and through the drums is the musical expression. I didn't hear you mention having ideas for drums that you felt the necessity to vocalize on your drums which I feel is vitally important.

He’s a drum genius. Him and Louis Cole are the outstanding modern drummers for me

he is literally a jazz musician playing a solo and you’re saying it’s bad that he’s using syncopated phrasing 🤡🤡

For future readers, the first solo is in 4/4 and the figure on the floor tom is "1 2 3" at the top of the 4-bar phrase, in the exact same rhythm as "Hot Cross Buns".
