You've misunderstood entirely what we want to do here.

We don't want to change the rule text, we want to change the license_expression for this rule to ms-net-library-2019-06 as this is a license we now have in licenseDB and so this is not an unknown license reference.

Note that we cannot just change a license-expression by replacing, we have to deprecate this rule and create a new rule, see the comment in #3744 (comment) for example. As this is reference data and we want to preserve these rule names and links to these.
