Didn't they?
My understanding is this happened:
* Microsoft writes codes with bugs
* NSA writes exploits for said bugs and a worm based on them
* ShadowBrokers leak the NSA exploits and worm
* Random hackers take the NSA worm and combine it with a ransomware payload
So the NSA wrote the exploits and by not reporting the vulnerabilities they found they exposed the public to others finding the vulns or their findings and/or exploits leaking.
