Nobody wants to hand a bunch of blackhats a working exploit without there being a patch available. But yeah, at some point you have to accept that the blackhats have it and it's "more ethical" to just start handing out the exploit POC so that companies can start testing their ability to detect + remediate the issue.
It's the whole "responsible disclosure" dance. Finding a 0-day is exciting as a researcher, but you have to keep your mouth shut while a fix gets built and tested. (Google's Project Zero gives a 90 day grace period, for example)
