Not really: those conditions are way too permissive - they would allow,
I don't know, like 30% of the AUR to be moved to [community]. They are
here to prevent moving blatantly useless packages to our repos, not to
be understood as sufficient conditions for moving.

If you say so. But that does not balance out the legal issues.
