To all other code/ECC experts, why on earth would any of you openly and publicly help to break ECC?
Because this is how progress is made; by pushing it to the limit. Attempting to break ECC, should be embraced, not criticized. How do you think you can test that a laminated glass is safe? You throw stuff on it, and make your observations. Should that glass be used on that model, why etc. You should definitely push it to the limit, until you feel confident it's safe.
As far as I've experienced, security which relies on mathematics and cryptography is an ongoing process, which can only be preserved if we're constantly trying to question it. Just imagine what would happen if it broke privately, and nobody, but those few, knew nothing.
