Fair use doesn’t need a license, so it doesn’t matter what you put in the license.

Generally speaking licenses give rights (they literally grant license). They can’t take rights away, only the legislature can do that.

Exclusive or co-exclusive licences can nullify your default fair use in certain jurisdictions.
