please use speaking subjects. They are not funny and not helpful. I updated it to a from my POV better summary. I don't get your point. License headers are important, the development ecosystem shifts to opensouce models (hell, even Microsoft admits that) and in that case clear licensing is a base requirement. If your students don't understand what is written there teach them, I understood you are in teaching, so use the oportunity. Just as teachers in germany have to consider correct spelling and grammer even in non- language subjects, you could make it a point by deducing points for invalid license headers. There is even a description how to "fix" the issue, so if that is to hard, maybe programming is not the right direction for the students? The header can't be placed at the end of the file as convention requires it to be at the top. There are projects out there that (rightly) refuse to include software without clear license statement. Maybe this gives this another perspective.
