The main value in releasing tools like this is to demonstrate weakness in our current security controls. A key weakness of biometrics is that there is no secret data. Open source tooling like this help people understand that.
I wish I didn’t have to scroll this far to find your rational perspective. Lets take the famous LockPickingLawyer of YouTube, is he responsible for every crime where the thief defeats a lock that he has demonstrated the weaknesses of? I would say “no!”.
Exposing a weakness puts the onus of securing said weaknesses on those that sell technology/devices/services that market themselves as “secure”.
