Their commentary also reflects this: they have next to no emotional investment in the fight and are talking about it like they're watching an interesting TV show. Dragon Ball Super: Whenever Beerus and Whis show up to observe and comment on one of Goku's fights, they will invariably be snacking while doing so.Considering Femt and Aligura are Blockade's equivalent of The Joker and Harley Quinn, this seems appropriate.
