*We (FRC Team) roto broach a bunch of parts since its easy to do and yields good results

To elaborate on RC's point, the other key factor is the lack of a full form hex. You can rotary broach to a nearly full profile hex, but it's dramatically better for tool life if you have an oversized initial bore. You can see this in the picture RC linked. The center of the flat is missing because the pilot bore is larger than nominal and you're left with just the corners.
