If intelligence agencies really want access to someone's data, they can plant bugs, or spy on them as they type in the password, or compel them with jail time. This isn't about access - it's about cheap, covert access, and in bulk. It's not enough for them to metaphorically break into your house and go through your stuff - they want you to remain unaware of it. Only not just your house, but everyone's.
