Descripción
### Description
To my understanding, the `license_expression` field in the JSON output is supposed to contain all distinct licenses listed under `reference_matches`. However, in my case there are
"reference_matches": [
// ...
"license_expression": "public-domain AND gpl-2.0-plus AND gpl-3.0-plus",
"license_expression": "lgpl-2.1 AND gpl-2.0 AND gpl-3.0",
but
"license_detections": [
// ...
"license_expression": "public-domain AND lgpl-2.1-plus AND gpl-2.0-plus AND (public-domain AND gpl-2.0-plus AND gpl-3.0-plus) AND (other-permissive AND other-copyleft) AND public-domain-disclaimer AND lgpl-2.1",
So the `gpl-2.0` and `gpl-3.0` license keys are missing. My guess it that they somehow get conflated into the also existing `gpl-2.0-plus` and `gpl-3.0-plus` license keys.
