This "vulnerability" being introduced by the TSA is completely irrelevant: wants to get into your luggage they can cut it open if they have to. Luggage locks have always protected against the threat model of "some rando rifling through my stuff" not "dedicated attacker who spends time ahead of time making devices to get into the luggage". The TSA doesn't and shouldn't care about people having copies of TSA luggage keys, it pragmatically doesn't change anything.
