We should not do this.

  • distribs() is no-op in bazel and being completely remove soon.
  • licenses() is a no-op in bazel, but is still widely seen, even if vestigial

Moving licenses to package() creates needless churn for reviewers, and can break existing tooling around finding licenses as a distinct tool
