In fact, modifying and updating licenses falls under what I'd consider free speech. The answer to bad license edits is not to shut them down, it's just to write better ones and convince others to use them.

I may not agree with bad license edits, but I'll defend them under the right to the free speech of the developer who is shipping the code.

It's never been acceptable free speech to sell a fake Rolex watch or a fake Samsung TV and its not a violation of free speech to insist they call it something else. This is a really weird hill to die on.

What you're talking about falls under Fair Use. Free speech protections don't provide any such right.
