list those (the only one I can think of is EPL-2.0), or to list a
small set of recommended/acceptable commonly-used FOSS licenses.
I do not agree with this view and consider this decision not to be helpful.

These licenses might not be "commonly used", but if they are used, these are the controversal ones, that need to be looked into, exactly because they "not commonly used".

Provocant question: Do you want contributors to contact redhat-legal in such cases, as we were required to do in the early days of Fedora?

To me, this reads as a pretty nasty regression in Fedora's workflow, which should be reconsidered/reverted.
