Upstream's synopsis uses the word "validity". I think I probably pulled
the synopsis from the first sentence of upstream's description, which
uses the word "problems".

For future reference, would something like this really hold up a merge?

Can you give more general guidance on what a description should have? I
can't infer any general rules from the reviews you've given, other than
maybe you are suggesting shorter descriptions. But the manual says:

    Descriptions should take between five and ten lines.

So I think my inference is probably not correct.

No? I like knowing what license things are! But if this is a style
thing, I can start leaving them off.
