Roberts is saying DACA and DAPA consist of two things. 
"Forbearance" - we won't deport you
"Affirmation" - here is a social security number and work authorization.
Roberts and the judges at the appellate level all took issue with the fact that the administration tried to end both parts of the policy, even though they only offered rationale for ending the affirmative part of the policy.
He's saying they needed to explain both, or else only end the one that they can explain.

DACA was a policy decision made by Obama without congressional approval. It should not require any reason from a future POTUS to end that policy. Otherwise a POTUS has the ability to create law. Saying that Trump didn't jump through enough hoops to change a law created by dictatorial fiat makes the ability to create law without Congress approving a matter of the SCOTUS deciding how many hoops are required (and they could decide the number is infinite).

You should read a synopsis of the Administrative Procedures Act.
And before you say it's unfair, remember, in 2017 Republicans were able to use that act to end a few administrative procedures of Obama's that the clock was still ticking on.  One was the Clean Power Plan. They weren't able to end DACA the same way because it had been enacted for too long.
