By your logic, politically, he would be better off had he not done DACA at all.

I can agree with that, older dreamers deserve it but I think the rational behind it is, we have to give it to the one who are still young and have many years left to contribute, a 40 year old dreamer is basically at his end of really contributing much (not saying that statement is true or not) but I do believe that's the reason why he had a cut off age.
And politically, no I don't think he'd be better off because if it wasn't for daca, he wouldn't of had so much support from the immigration community because with he, he showed that he didn't forget about us. I'll be honest, if it wasn't for daca I probably wouldn't want him to get re-elected for the pure fact that he said he'd do something about dreamers and didn't. But he did with daca.
