The text we are discussing is only about what license we require other folks

And, even more specifically, it is only about how we describe that license in
the event that we want to change forward-going extractors. The difference in
the wording has no effect on folks after they have extracted the code and
complied with the instructions.
But that it might change adds a burden of being able to identify the point
in time that the code was extracted and hence applicable license. I've
worked in enough small development organizations to believe that to be a
potentially significant problem.
