I feel that examples argues the opposite.
It's not entirely known how every step of that attack went down, but "breaking low quality crypto" hasn't factored into any incident write up I've ever seen.
However, nearly all ransomware uses rsa. Therefore in this particular case, high quality crypto caused harm.
(To state the obvious, I'm not advocating for bad crypto, just discussing this case).
