the prophecy was rather pointless in my mind, we didn't really learn 
anything that we hadn't already guessed. No part of it should have 
been described as  "a weapon of sorts".

I don't think that DD, seeing the error of his past ways, would tell 
Harry only half the truth. I think he told him the prophecy in full, 
but is sort of leaving it to Harry to work out its meaning for 
himself. Or amongst his friends as we know he will tell Ron and 
Hermione whom each think differently than Harry does, and will put a 
different spin on it.
