We report the license GitLab has detected. So in your case,

curl "https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/api/v4/projects/cangjie%2Fpycangjie?license=1" | jq .license.name

If you think there's a problem with GitLab's license detection, you can raise an issue with GitLab. Usually these types of issues boil down to the text in the license in the user's repo being subtly different in some minor way from the canonical version of the license that the source control platform is comparing against.

Cheers.
