The NSA is not omniscient anymore then the security services of any other nation are.

Most of what they do probably is just exploiting known bugs since they commit the resources to finding them as a basic part of their mission. You talk about a threat model, but you're proposing one which assigns a ludicrous amount of capability to an organization which, fundamentally, is still staffed and draws upon the same pool of human-talent that everyone else does (that is, graduates of universities principally in the western world).
