I know I will be sorry for this - but how do you "experts" rationalize that "Ehyeh" is "I am" and not "I will be"?

The next phrase is translated as "I am has sent me to you." Schwa in slhni raises doubts about that word being 3ms PT verb. Could the phrase be better rendered, "I will be a messenger to you"?
