I would guess it is intended to make this font incompatible to SIL-OFL in order to prevent others combining font files.
With source (VFC), and with a plain OFL license text. I suspect, given the commiters and the fact that the README refers people to Google Fonts, that this is the result of a conversation between folks on the Google Fonts team and folks at the Braille Institute. (Although that's a guess; it could very well have been a conversation with any of the people on this list as well!)
Which is good to see; accidental license incompatibility is often more likely than intentional, plus it's just reassuring that some conversation brought them into more standard release practices.
