Such build could be marked as such too. Either by getting a new field:

    …
    "scratchBuild" : true,
    …

or by setting:

    …
    "originatingBuildSystem" : "scratch.koji.fedoraproject.org",
    …

It'd be entirely up to Fedora to do this, if and how they want to make
things recognizable.

So the the point I am making is not that we should do this at all or
exactly this way, I am just saying that this is all designed to be
extensible enough to naturally and nicely cover for issues like this
if they should really become issues.
