I assume that while Mythos may be really good at finding vulnerabilities, lighter models may still do a pretty good job of explaining/exploiting the vulnerability if given the patch which fixes it.

Maintainers attempt to reduce the likelihood of that somewhat by giving security patches boring-sounding commit messages. When there are thousands of patches for every kernel release to sift through, that adds a small barrier for would-be exploiters.
