What happened to maxItems here? This is wrong. You keep changing random
things, again. V3 was correct.

That's not what I asked for. Like four times I asked you to add here
unevaluatedProperties: false and I never said that ref to partition.yaml
should be removed and you... instead remove that ref.

You need to define here children and specify their ref.

You must use unevaluatedProperties: false here. So this is fifth time I
am writing this feedback.

This does not make sense now...
