The roof bracing should be in the same bay as the X-braces in the walls.

Also your end walls are not always frames and they are therefore often smaller members to take the chord compression force.
Another reason is construction, The erector should start at the braced bay, erect the bracing and move on from there. If this was at a non portal frame end bay then you would have a lot more members to put up before the structure was braced.
hope this helps.
