You are conflating license tag conversion with a license audit. Tag

No, I state the old GPL tags and the new GPL identifiers have different meanings.
This is not the case. Even going back to the beginning when the case
was first made and all the identifiers were being categorized, all the
GNU license tags we had for the Fedora system were matched 1:1 to the
SPDX ones. They do not have different meanings.
That the form of how GNU license identifiers differ from how we did it
before is why I *explicitly* asked and got confirmation about when it
happened. Everyone was forced to deal with it when SPDX deprecated the
"+" modifier and the associated GNU license tags that used it.
The *only* actual difference between "time of Fedora identifiers" and
"time of now" is that we have this quest to use SPDX identifiers
everywhere and our ability to simplify *informational* license tags
has been removed.
As said, I know I won't change your mind. And that's OK. You don't need to keep
repeating your argument.
All I say is that FESCo did not approve this.
