I agree. I don't think anything should be pushed into dist-git that
isn't built for rawhide for like ... maybe > 3 weeks (or built in
side-tags and not submitted to bodhi in a similar time-frame). Mass
changes like the SPDX migration shouldn't be a special case here -
after all, the spec file changes will never end up in repositories if
they're pushed but never built.
