IMHO
Flynn's calls to Russia were mult-purpose...
• Convey the actual message regarding future termination of sanctions
• create a diversionary trail for IC to follow which would easily establish Flynn as the lone wolf Russian Connection ...
It was like an insurance policy... if the Russia related investigations ever posed a threat then someone would anonymously leak info which would reveal this (purposefully diversionary) trail to Flynn & then IC /FBI could justify deeming the entire Russia issue as "Case Closed".

I think the real problem was that 45 had to sacrifice Flynn far earlier than had ever been anticipated..
