This is news to me as well. Definitely not the case on smaller or much
larger MXes.

My MX304 trial license expired last night, after rebooting the MX304, 
various protocols no longer work.  This seems more than just 
honor-based... ospf, ldp, etc, no longer function.  This is new to me; 
that Juniper is making protocols and technologies tied to license.  I 
need to understand more about this, as I'm considering buying MX304's.

It depends. MACSEC on EX and QFX first had a license warning and a permanent 
minor alert when configured on these platforms. With Junos 18 they introduced 
MACSEC License Enforcement, i.e. no more MACSEC for you if you don't have a 
valid license installed.

Introducing license warnings and minor alerts when conifguring a static route 
on MX304 might be a sign of things to come. When buying MX304, you are now 
running the risk of this device only being able to work as a switch after a 
firmware upgrade, unless you have a valid license installed.

Also, I get a license warning when committing OSPF and LDP.  We got a

license from our account team and now we don’t see that message anymore

Any details on what this license does, and if there is any operational
risk if you don't apply it?

Mark.
