Now that automatic extension makes sense and is much more in line with what's stated on the DACA renewal page:

Note: If USCIS is unexpectedly delayed in processing your renewal request, we may provide deferred action and employment authorization for a short period of time until we finish processing your request. We may do this if you filed your request at least 120 days before your current period of deferred action and employment authorization expire.

It provided no instructions on how to go about obtaining this temporary extension, implying that they will automatically send out those temporary EADs as our expiration dates approach. This could also be why the national support center people claimed that DACA recipients are not eligible to obtain extensions via info-pass given that this auto extension follows a different protocol.
We should all email NILC to make them aware that these are not isolated incidents. Let's hope for the best!
