Yeah, I skipped a lot because there was one big thread with a question:
what do you think? Sorry, I will not dig 8 emails thread to figure out
which question is to me and which is not...

oneOf:
- clock-names:
minItems: 3
items:
- a
- b
- c
- d
- clock-names:
items:
- a
- b
- d
or maybe:
- clock-names:
minItems: 3
items:
- a
- b
- enum: [c, d]
- d

You said to a letter addressed to me "whether the hardware allows for
...". Why would you ask me about hardware I know nothing about? That was
my question - I am asking - whether hardware allows it or not. Then
write bindings depending on that.
