This is a really good question.
Fuzzing is about searching a state-space of an entity: function, method, and I suppose even a hardware-block for unexpected or undefined, or maybe even undocumented behavior.
Certainly this could have been used by the exploiters of these bugs to find undocumented but desirable effects in the hardware of iOS hardware blocks or devices.
Its one of the major arguments against backdooring systems even if you think this to be acceptable. In the end you create a backdoor for everyone, even if you dont do it as moronic as here. You are the hostile actor.
