4. They likely have some very serious ongoing activities they don't want to leak to Trump/targets

and they know they can't trust the Republicans in Congress to keep their yaps shut.

They don't have to worry about accuracy, they have evidence that speaks for itself. The FBI isn't who is dissembling here. What is going on is Trump is obstructing justice and that makes the case all the broader and more serious. They are too hard at work to take time for Congress too, I suspect.
