I'd describe the phrase 'embarrassing variety' to mean 'too many of something, and those many things are so varied that it causes (or ought to cause) embarrassment'.

- There was an embarrassing variety of errors in the English test.

- The doctors offered an embarrassing variety of medical opinions before the correct diagnosis was finally made.
