REUSE recommendations, tutorials, FAQ and specification
The instructions say: https://github.com/fsfe/reuse-docs/blob/0913b0a83b36c161966be1c5e70c81bdadfb8a69/spec.md?plain=1#L176-L177 but in the example only one of the two tags has the "Snippet": https://github.com/fsfe/reuse-docs/blob/0913b0a83b36c161966be1c5e70c81bdadfb8a69/spec.md?plain=1#L182-L184 Why doesn't the `License-Identifier` need a prepended `Snippet`?
