Many of us do not read cover letters. They don't really matter,
especially that serial tree will not include it. Each commit must stand
on its own.

The xxx and xxx-names properties always go in sync. Otherwise we do not
really know what is the power domain for other variants.

You are allowed to be unspecific about power domain (so maxItems: 1) if
it is obvious. You now made it non-obvious, so above flexibility does
not apply anymore.
