What is their motivation to release this? It's not like SELinux where improving general security can be seen as a national security objective.

Having a more robust reverse engineering community seems like it would be a national security objective, in a broad sense.

This tool lowers the bar for security researchers to analyze malware, and seems to be part of a broader effort by the NSA to share their tools and foster public-private partnerships.
