There isn't any requirement that any clemency list the persons by name. Johnson granted amnesty to Confederate soldiers, Carter to draft dodgers, and most recently Biden for the offenses of simple marijuana possession.
Ok thanks for providing that info and examples. Seems pretty broad but it’s useful insight.

As already discussed with Ford, the pardon also doesn't have to specifically list the crime (although in this case it should).
I don’t feel that the Ford pardon is at all equivalent to what is being suggested Trump should have done.

The question was whether a pardon could be issued for as yet unspecified crimes. He cited the Ford pardon as evidence that indeed unspecified crimes could be pardoned. I'd say the relevancy was very high.
