If you understood the technical details of the vulnerability, you'd understand why it's virtually impossible to exploit. Accordingly, it's more than likely that Zalewski is correct.
Further, it is more-than-likely in everyone's long term interests if Microsoft gets its arms twisted around sooner, rather than later. Their patch process continues to put customers at risk simply because it is grossly mismanaged and unforgivably slow.
I've had the, erm... pleasure... of dealing with it on occasion, and I can certainly say that I don't blame Zalewski a bit.
