The word "conservative" isn't a political word in all (or even I would have thought in most) contexts: it's normal meaning is similar to "chosen so as to be careful". For example, a "conservative estimate" isn't "an estimate that leans to the right of the political spectrum": it is an estimate which has been padded out in the direction you are more likely wrong.
When someone says they are being "ultra super conservatively cautious" they are merely being super extra extra doubly-cautious, as we are stacking similar adjectives (as one might could do with something else such as "carefully"). So, wanting to avoid being in a gray area is dead center to being "conservative" in one's curation or legal strategy.
