They say to just use the classifier. See https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/writing-pyproject-toml/#license which says: If you are using a standard, well-known license, it is not necessary to use this field. Instead, you should use one of the classifiers starting with License ::. Though we'll keep an eye on PEP639 which hopefully gets accepted soon, and which slightly tweaks some of these fields.
