Is lack of trust in their comedy or they really think the public is that dumb they need to know when to laugh?
Or is a by product of its former format, the live laughs with a crowd while filming?

I know that on FRIENDS, they filmed the show with a live audience. They used the audience to figure out if the jokes were funny enough and drew a lot of feedback from them.
The show definitely also used laugh tracks as well.
Some shows use an obnoxious amount of laugh tracks though.
