Fun fact, the need for NSA exploits to be installed on an “enemy” (target) device had nothing to do with how they were leaked in this case.
And stuff kept in vaults can be leaked too.
Sure the two things are different but the dynamics are the same. Information wants to be free, and it leaks.
Your argument can be turned around as well. The NSA tools were meant for use by a small specialized team under strict controls. Whereas key escrow has been put forward as a solution that would allow any podunk sheriff in any jurisdiction to apply for access to decrypt private information anywhere... virtually guaranteeing compromise with poor security practices, unlike what would be expected for the NSA tools.
