So if that's the primary source of this, that theory really have trouble.

You failed to notice other clues in the show. Kate Argent would be around Derek's age of that we can all agree, yes? Her grave stone says 1983-2011. We know she went to school with Derek. Peter has told us that Derek is “not as young as we could have been but not as old as you might think”. There is no saying that for most of Dereks life he wasn't home schooled. Perhaps is REAL birthdate is around '83 the same as Kate's. In order to cover up their slow age factor it isn't a stretch to imagine that once Derek could pass for a high school aged kid then Talia (his MOM) wouldn't have had false papers saying that his birth date was in '88. That makes his license indeed a fake but explains everything else. Thank you.
