You said it all in that sentence. No other commentary was necesary to
make your point.
Besides reading exploit code (if such code were released, which it was
not), I'd imagine (as you mention) reverse engineering the patch and/or
sniffing the network traffic of your (or another) scanner in action
would be much more productive methods of determining how to write an
exploit than your advisory was.
