Why should academia only produce excellent security algorithms with "Bad" likelihood?

  That's the wrong way to read it - their likelihood is bad compared to an agency with secrets that gives it a better chance, and even then, that agency only receives a fair likelihood. At least this part is close to reality - per another comment, the NSA understood differential cryptanalysis years before academia I guess we could add more score levels to make it more explicit, but I'm pretty sure that beer-addled table has bigger problems
