A suggestion to your correction.

If you won't to say: "You have a mismatch between header and
MODULE_LICENSE, please make sure it will match."
You saying some thing like this: "I was right last time. Make module
License like I saying."

I'm confuse, what is your actual point? Do you trying to prove some thing?
