It hasn’t been the first time something like this was theorized. My feeling is M458 was likely Lusatian originally. Possibly related to Proto-Balto-Slavic and becoming extinct sometime in the Iron Age like many other indo Europeans languages that didn’t survive. M458 has numerous clades that went near extinct in the Iron Age before having demographic booms with the later Proto-Slavic/Slavic migrations.
Milograd/Chernoles have some of the strongest connections to Balto-Slavs and a clear North-East and East spread. Z280 more than any has many clades unifying both Balts and Slavs. There is a clear East to West Cline tapering off further west. I2a1b May have been overtaken at some point by the spread of Z280.
M458 on the other hand has a strong central east European presence with a West to East cline, tapering off further east, including high diversity in East Germany and Poland, and South-West Belarus if I am not mistaken.
The Trzciniec culture is considered to be an Eastern offshoot of Corded Ware and a Balto-Slavic peoples. Eastern Trzciniec roughly corresponds to both Milograd and Chernoles Cultures. The western portion being in the contact zone of Lusatian Culture.
Is it out of the realm of possibility that with the collapse of Lusatian, Western Trzciniec having Lusatian admixture spread M458 eastward, and that the convergence of M458/Z280/I2a1b around the Proto-Slavic Urheimat is what eventually would form Proto-Slavs and spread during the great migration?
Or, similarly, the contact zones between these cultures could have mingled the 3 into what would become Proto-Slavs while the Proto tribes proper fell by the wayside.
Eventually with the development of Church Slavonic spreading through the Slavic tribal regions causing the dissemination/extinction of various Proto Slavic dialects into Common Slavic and the various Slavic languages today?
