It won't be for the sole benefit of Guix.  It would be of the benefit
for *everyone* distributing a copy of clojure-com-cognitect-aws-s3 that
wants to avoids copyright violation.

If the apparent (*) copyright violation and non-freeness cannot be
resolved, then I don't think that clojure-com-cognitect-aws-s3 can be
included in Guix, given that Guix is not above the (copyright) law and
given that software in Guix must be free software.

Unless the blob is removed I suppose, in a snippet.

(*) as-in, there is no evidence it is not a violation or actually free.
