But it is not very useful in its current state, because several popular

even very small differences can be very huge. We actually have to make this
legally right or the whole thing is useless.

This points nicely to something I've been wondering about.

Could it be a problem for non-lawyers to categorize ("give an opinion") on a license that isn't an exact word-for-word duplicate of a known license?
