FBI director says iPhone unlock demands are limited, won't 'set a master key loose'
I suspect that technical organizations with a large employee base such as Apple already have "informers" or "moles" sympathetic to the FBI/NSA that are in position to transfer key "know-how" in support of national security. When these assets went looking for the methods or code it did not exist. Therefore the FBI/NSA needed to compel Apple to develop the methods. Once developed the embedded assets can help guide the appropriate organizations for its duplication. Unfortunately there are likely other national assets likewise embedded. The safe harbor is to not develop the "know-how".
