The article seems to corroborate what you said:
The three-count indictment charges Wolfe with separate instances of making false statements to the FBI, not directly charging him for leaking classified information, but appearing to detail how he did allegedly leaked classified information to reporters and then allegedly lied about it to the FBI.
So is getting a pass on actually leaking the information, and the only charges that he lied? Why? As you said, he should be charged with treason. Making the information is more important than the lie.
There might be some reason they did not charge the major count because to do so would mean they would have to disclose the content of what was revealed and how it was a violation of the espionage act. Or this clown was cornered and they charged him with the less offense because he is cooperating. Sometimes the tactic is to indict and send him out wired for conformation from those also involved.
Last night on Hannity or Carlson, Ron Desantis mentioned there was an indictment in the works but he could not speak about it. He obviously was aware of it Which to me means there was probably a lot of uncomfortable clowns up in DC yesterday. I’d love to see both Warner and that POS Burr strung up.

Now, I Do Not know if it is happening in this particular case, but I can tell you generally why such lower charges are made to hold an individual and get them into the system. They charge first with what they have an iron-clad case for, more complex charges are held back to negotiate with the perp. To roll him up...get his testimony against further characters in a larger conspiracy. You hold out a carrot and a stick. A carrot is the possibility of a plea deal on this lesser charges that will lighten his sentence, in return for good testimony on others involved in the conspiracy. The stick is the subsequent, much heavier espionage charges that can be put together as the investigation continues.
Now I dont know what is actually happening, none of us commenting here do, but that is what normally happens in cases of wider conspiracy, which, again only in my opinion, this obviously is.
