Coz there is a significant risk of penalty, of jail time. That's what a sworn affidavit is, is it not?
I think what you say is true of most people, but it seems very clear that we have a group which doesn't behave like most people.
Are you asserting that some of the same people who filed affidavits also entered the capitol own jan 6th? Is there any evidence for this?

I think we as a society are moving past the whole "judge some people by the actions of some different people" thing.
For what it's worth I imagine many of them think they're telling the truth, or at least are honestly putting their name to something they've been told and believe. That also doesn't mean they're right though.
They could also just be wrong.
There's a reason why eye-witness testimony is one of the weakest forms of evidence there is.
