Mueller knows what any good prosecutor knows: many witnesses' chief value lies in their information—not their incarceration. That's especially so when the President of the United States is an investigative target. I don't care if Corsi gets 0 days or 6 months—as long as he talks.
2/ Neither the number of charges, the nature of the charges, nor even the amount of incarceration sought (if any) tells us very much about precisely what information Corsi gave to Mueller—though we can at least presume (from the preceding information) that its value was/is high.
3/ A reader just put it well (I paraphrase):
Q: Why do folks like Corsi and Papadopoulos face only one count of an offense that can't incarcerate them for long?
A: Because they can't launch nuclear weapons.
That's it in a nutshell. When POTUS is the target, everything changes.
