I think you may be misunderstanding this -- greatly. The details of the exploit (that is, the part that Nintendo cares about -- the vulnerability) have been public since May of last year. The fact that the Switch is vulnerable to it (and it's being actively exploited by people) has been known by the public for at least two days. We decided to release this once the vulnerability was already going to be dead, not to accelerate its demise.
Additionally, this isn't a root, nor is it even close. This is the first stepping stone to be used by researchers to get deeper into the Switch and find new bugs. In no way will this impede the homebrew community; it will only serve to empower it.
