Sounds very reasonable to me. From what I understood that was all
about partial quotes which show up as part of search-results and the

just embed the required text-blocks into the site and display them
on-mouse-over of the SPDX tag, which would technically speaking make
that change in their usage terms unnessecary, thus I got suspicous.

haivng to send a large chunk of license data for each snippet in a search result would greatly multiply the size of the downloaded page, not nice to users.

This change seems reasonable to me.
