You are right vis-a-vis sanctions and ( based on what I understand ) Monero at this time. I think the reason this is not a killswitch parent is referring to is that there is just too much money on the line for the government. LEOs are apparently still trying to figure out how do it right. Last bigger conference I was a part of representative discussed some of the less appreciated logistics ( for example, you can't sell that much of bitcoin and not tank the price for one ). It is different from auctioning Tony Montana's yacht.

Selling a giant pile of Bitcoin and tanking the price is a feature, not a bug...
That may be your personal opinion but meanwhile governments are actually supporting using Bitcoin, not trying to destroy it.
