If we can't say "maxItems: 2", omitting it or using "minItems: 1" seems to be a better option. As you mentioned, we can't do much about it now that it's part of the DT. I've provided the info you need to make the appropriate change. Looks like there's no perfect solution. Please make the change you see best fit. Thanks, Thinh
