When you referring to "spdx2debian" I need to clarify. It is important to distinguish between "practices" and "standards". There is Debian and there is SPDX/Reuse. My "spdx2debian" is in between an somehow try to bring them (or some of their good documented packages) together. That is why we discuss this here. If a project is 100%-spdx-compliant there is no need for a * stanza. But technically if multiple files in the repo share the same license and the copyright info, and if they are not mixed with other files in the same directory "spdx2debian" will use "somedir/*" for them. It is not that unflexible. ;)
