Sure, my suggestion was intended to minimize or remove project management
overhead. If you’re willing to shepherd through the list of 40-ish modules, go
for it. The same work gets done at the end.
Suggest extracting a checker script from your fixer script, add it to the build
utils, and run it at license check or similar time – after we think the work is
done, to keep old style from sneaking back in.

Matt, it looks like your reply was pretty close to my email, so I'm not
sure you saw it. Would you have objections to just doing the license fix
and reformat as paired tickets, module-by-module? I think that'll just be
easier all around to coordinate, and in retrospect I think it'll make my
life easier too. At that point, I'll just kill the existing PR and put out
new ones when I have some free time.
