Trump himself would never call for this. He would say something stupid like, "I don't have any classified documents left and the ones I have are MINE!" The legal team probably wants to stop the bleeding and avoid non-compliance with the subpoena. This will help Trump in a small way, and for their efforts they will be yelled at for not just saying they didn't find anything.
