The linked blog assures people that this can't be used to access data. Once something is crashing an app/OS, can you really say that? I mean, can you be sure there's no one clever enough to capitalize on the underlying software error leading to this state?

That would be a general issue with app crashing, and a huge deal worth it’s own series of articles. iOS’ sandboxing makes it so unlikely this exists, it’s not worth mentioning and the sensational writing might be counterproductive to getting the actual issue fixed. To use an analogy, it’d be like mentioning that someone could hack Google in an article about Gmail downtime.
