There's plenty of projects that don't follow REUSE (e.g., Guix itself),
and there might be some that have the .reuse/dep5 and LICENSES but
aren't doing things 100% according to the spec, but I don't think it
matters much to Guix if SPDX-License-Identifier is present in every
file and such, given that all Guix has to do here is copy license
files, so Guix could be taught to copy .reuse/dep5 and LICENSES (in
addition to LICENSE, COPYING, ...).
