thinking about this and assuming that the FTL Communication are
deployed in a not too far distant future, wouldn't we have started
to receive packets that was sent in the future already now?

Indeed, and this tells us that publication of this was important,
since we'll need to be in a position to handle the issues that will
occur much sooner than deployment, and for that matter
development of the technology.
