Why are memoirs typically written in the first-person point of view?

Memoirs recount the writer’s own experiences, so first-person pronouns such as “I” let the writer describe events from a personal perspective and reflect on what they meant. This makes “allows the writer to represent and reflect on experiences more personally” the correct choice. First person does not automatically make a text fictional or show multiple viewpoints.
