They really should increase the # so that all DACA can obtain gc instantly after the 5 yr period. Shouldn't be too hard to come up with an extra 30-40k visas a year that can be kept in escrow to get to the 800k mark by 6 th year.

This is not entirely true. There will be 400,000 GCs up for grabs in 5 years, maybe up to 450,000. Sure, some will have to wait 5 more years most less than 3 years, but with the visa you wont be stranded. You will be able to travel. You will be able todo anything if not more than what you can already do with daca. What else can you complain about? I think is a reasonable plan. Most importanly it expires not until 6 years later, and it can be renewed. I think this covers most of our bases. Not everyone will apply the for GC the first year they become available , some will wait longer, I think it will be okay.
