Fedora's Licensing Guidelines don't use the term "effective license"

There is no such thing as an "effective license" related to the Mixed
Source Licensing Scenario [1], because re-licensing a program, such as
converting from LGPL to GPL, is not done implicitly or automatically.
Thanks but that doesn't answer my question. Are so many people just
imagining things? Why does this inconsistency exist? I'd like to have
this cleared up so we won't have to discuss the same issue over and
over again.
