Answer:

It makes the scene more humorous.

Explanation:

Despite being a situation where people would normally pay respect, the speaker in this case instead makes a humorous remark by pointing out the irony in the listener's predicament. Lady Bracknell might not find anything funny about Jack's statement, but the grace is intended to be directed towards the other witnesses (the audience).
