Investigators may see it differently. With a Trump-Don Jr. call, Trump and his son can both deny recalling whether the call mentioned the Agalarovs and no one would be able to contradict them. *Now* Lorber becomes a "new" witness who can be asked a slough of questions under oath.
2/ And of course Lorber will be asked not only if he remembers that call but *any* conversation with Trump about Russia, Clinton emails, and so on while he was Trump's best friend and adviser. And if he lies, there are probably texts, emails and/or call records contradicting him.
3/ Trump had many(ish) advisers, probably many with blocked numbers, so what this CNN report does is underscore that Mueller has been able to penetrate that veil of secrecy to discover which Trump friends/advisers were immediately called in the thick of the Trump-Russia contacts.
