Hello Jonas,
thanks for asking back.

I have reframed it as an option (rather than
a default goal):
support excluding formats e.g. to only check for SPDX fields
Do you agree that this covers the point of this issue?
Kind of. Yes. ;)
But I would still argument that it should be default behavior of
licensecheck, to not looking for other formats if SPDX is provided.
Checking for SPDX and other formats at the same time/file would
contradict the goal of SPDX.
If authors using SPDX and extra license information on purpose they are
using SPDX the wrong way.
So doing it my way would be a more pedagogical and train/force the
authors to learn how to use SPDX the right way.
