They also have a lot more to gain than I do when attempting to breach security and infiltrate the computers of other worldwide governments, thanks to being the only people (besides Microsoft itself and likely a few other U.S. government organizations) to know about these zero-day exploits. Shit, all I would gain is "FELONY" on my record and a prison sentence.

Other governments and even large corporations are within their rights to demand the same from Microsoft as a condition of licensing their software. As individuals, it might not be easy or possible to demand the same, but there is nothing stopping you from trying.
