By default the output contains licenses, repository, publisher, email, path, licenseFile attributes which are fine for known packages. But for others which are located deep into the dependency tree and have some short or "weird" names, it is really hard to guess their purpose. Adding the description field as possible output will help a lot whenever this exists within package.

Currently license-checker-rseidelsohn --limitAttributes licenses,description --json > result.json or license-checker-rseidelsohn --limitAttributes description --json > result.json` results into:

{
    "package@version": {
        "licenses": "license"
    }
}
{
    "package@version": {}
}
