Correct.

I am very opposed to forking source tarballs away from upstreams and would
prefer to avoid doing so if possible.

Also, AFAIS, all of the "tests" are "distributable" (legal to be
re-distributed), with their licensing not affecting the "binary" rpms and many
of them either qualifying as "art work" or as "trivial" (== non-copyrightable
== non-licensable). That said, I don't see much reason to remove any of them. 

All I want is RH-legal to give their "rubber stamp" - i.e. them to formally
approve or disapprove the legal status of the sources.
