> Imagine if instead of returning some DoS javascript they deliver a payload to silently exploit a vulnerability

It would be foolish to imagine that this is still theoretical. Tools this powerful are tempting to use. Unfortunately, the first publicly known use of a tool or method is often assumed to be the use in general.

Not only are you correct in that the GFW will be used for much smaller attacks that will probably go unnoticed, it almost certainly already has.
