I'd imagine that at minimum, the team in charge of patching the vulnerability would need to review how the exploit works.

That doesn't make reviewing the POC any less valuable.

It makes the exploit code more readable. We all love to laugh at C folks but for real, even Linux kernel maintainers care about readability.
