The installed license files (if there are) are not changed. So, unless the license itself changed, simply switching to an SPDX identifier as Mark Wagie did does not change the package and I think it's fine not bumping the pkgrel _just_ for that.Changing package metadata does change the package, though.
But when it's not in a way that would be impacting for the end users (like it's the case here) there's no _need_ to trigger a rebuild for users simply because of that. The point is, in that specific case, bumping the pkgrel is fine, not bumping it is fine either. Such a change can totally wait for the next pkgver bump (or _required_ pkgrel bump).
