One administration prosecuting another would be unprecedented and probably embittering, regardless of its value to truth and justice.

It would not be one administration prosecuting another, it would be non-partisan prosecutors prosecuting criminals.
Donald Trump attempted to politicize the DOJ, but otherwise it is a non-political entity and has prosecuted Republicans and Democrats alike during previous administrations.

What Donald Trump demonstrated was that the DOJ and judiciary are structurally partisan even if they were culturally neutral.
The Mueller Report documents that Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump meant with Russians multiple times to coordinate political activities during the 2016 campaign.
They weren't indicted because AG Barr, Donald Trump's personal appointee, has refused to indict them.
It is very possible that they could be indicted within the next year.
