Indeed. I agree that the servers in the pool are not the main source of
the problems. However, they do represent a large group of people who
actually know what NTP is, and can be contacted relatively easier. No
fighting your way through an abuse department convincing them there's
actually a problem.
Plus, any server that can be exploited is just adding to the chaos right
now.

I have some more information this that I can't disclose, but I'm confident that the
number of "open for reflection" servers in the NTP Pool is a very minor part of
the problem overall (and also that compared to all the others then we have a clear path
to get it sorted because for starters we have some contact information for those IPs
that's more relevant than whatever is in whois).
