Fedora has enforced this CC0 for many years and now it is "not allowed". This is so ridiculous.

This is a fairly unusual change and may
have an impact on a nontrivial number of Fedora packages (that is not
clear to me right now), and we may grant a carveout for existing
packages that include CC0-covered code.

Maybe the legal team should have done some investigation before banning the CC0 license?
