Holding is different than filing. As I said, i'm fine with holding, just not filing. For precisely the reason you say. Non-profits can in fact, "go bad" the same as any other corporation. If they can only hold patents, and not file them, you at least cut off a source of that happening. Is it possible to work around? So is anything in the legal world. But it makes for a nice barrier.
