Sadly, leaking the key is not the answer. You'd give independent developers the freedom to use SGX, but at the same you'd make SGX worthless.

Details: if the key used to sign architectural enclaves (like the Launch Enclave) would leak, this would completely break SGX. Anyone with the key could create their own Quoting Enclave and the guarantees behind software attestation would go down the drain.
