TL;DR is that is how sub-classing or extending schemas works.

I think I read something at one point which explained why it doesn't
work without allOf, but couldn't find it. Certainly, it seems like it
should at first.

That would just split defining the type from the additional
constraints. I prefer to keep the top-level 'allOf' including classes
of devices.
