IANAL, I've created this PR because I've interpreted the text as intended for the the general audience, hence the redundancy.

If that kind of legal precision is significant for the text intended for the general audience, then it may be preferable to distinguish between two versions: general/human-readable version and the official legal version.

See for example, a human-readable summary of a license: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 with its official (legal) license: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode
