I agree.  In fact, I think listing both "0BSD" and "FPL-1.0.0" is a great 
solution, especially if the SPDX website includes notices with each similar to 
the text at https://opensource.org/licenses/FPL-1.0.0:

I think this is a fine result:
- People who know the name of either license can now look it up
- Both sides who strongly prefer their name get their name
- For those who care, we now have documentation about the subtly different way 
they're typically used.
