That would be a very offensive move. I like it. How will that kill off this malware though? Just by making incrementally harder (might work!) or through something more fundamental I'm missing?

I wouldn’t be surprised if everything that NSO does depends on just one or two extremely good exploits. Once Apple rolls out an update to patch the one or two critical bugs, it’ll stop NSO for a nice long time until they spend hundreds of man years or millions of dollars to find another exploit that’s just as good.

I don't actually think it costs hundreds of man years to find these bugs at the moment.
