The problem for me is that the list of these exception is not available and not maintained. I inherited Mock from Clark and later gave it to Pavel and I am now merely co-maintainer. So I really do not know if Mock has had the exception. And because no one enforce it I even did not apply for the exception for fedora-license-data and I use common sense, becase it does not have sense to have old data in stable branches.

Absoletely. There's a ton of variables that go into the decision, but I
think it's important for there to be some general guidance to err on the
side of not changing the user experence in stable releases if you can.
