7bce113189 Demystified -> made 
Claiming open source licenses need to be demystified is a claim
that they are mysterious. Choosealicense.com is not *Capital*; its
topic does not need to be mystified and demystified at once.

http://robertpaulwolff.blogspot.com/2014/09/more-on-language-and-social-reality.html

Someone encountering open source licenses for the first time at
choosealicense.com should have zero reason to think open source
licensing is mysterious.

37f065425b always usually evaluates to false 
Remove "If you have questions or issues, it is always best to consult
a legal professional."

It's not always best, especially considering it's costly and for
most finding one knowledgable about open source licensing will be
difficult.

If it were always best, the site should consist of

<h1>Consult a legal professional.</h1>

But seriously, claiming one should consult a legal professional is
no way to make choosing an open source license non-scary.

810eeb5618 rename/order license properties better reflect how licenses work 
and are structured

grant (permissions)
conditioned on (conditions)
with limitations

Permissions coming first combats mistaken but apparently widespread
impression that licenses impose conditions, even such that without
a license, there would be no conditions/work would be in the public
domain.

Requirements->Conditions emphasizes that they are pertinent if one
wants to take advantage of permissions.

Forbiddens->Limitations is more accurate: in most cases licenses
don't give permission to hold licensors liable, in some cases to
use licensors' trademarks or patents, but a licensee does not lose
the permissions granted by the license if the licensee holds licensor
liable, etc. Also emphasizes that there are limitatations on the
license grant, not that the license imposes prohibitions.

The most concise place to see both the rename and reorder is in
_includes/license-overview.html

I did not reorder the appearance of the groups of properties in
license source files (.txt files in _licenses) as those orderings
are not used to render anything on the webiste. Might do so later.
