But you can grant select to one "reader" role, and grant that one role
to however many other roles you want.  This way you can have an
arbitrary number of roles with indirect access to the table.  In
real-world usage, this is more convenient that granting access to
individual roles on individual tables; likely, you'll grant access to
sets of tables/views/functions/etc rather than exactly one, and you can
manage that more easily if you have one intermediate role to modify than
if you have to mess with 5000 individual roles.
