My point was exactly the opposite of putting the onus on the researcher. I support responsible disclosure. In responsible disclosure, the researcher informs the vendor (Apple) and leaves it to them to coordinate informing people of mitigations and pushing out a patch. If the vendor fails to respond or make progress in a certain period of time, the researcher can inform the public. It specifically puts the responsibility for dealing with the vulnerability in the hands of the vendor.
