Yeah, that's more helpful wording than "prefer" for sure!

If that's a no-go & so are the booleans prefixed with "riscv,whatever-",
since people have size concerns, I guess that leaves your string
suggestion (there is a helper in Linux at least, haven't checked
elsewhere yet).

I guess that means something like:

  riscv,isa-extensions:
    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string-array
    minItems: 1
    description: Extensions supported by the hart.
    items:
      anyOf:
        - const: i
          description: foo
        - const: m
          description: foo
        - const: a
          description: foo
        - const: f
          description: foo
        - const: d
          description: foo
        - const: c
          description: foo
        - const: zifencei
          description: foo
        - etc

Obviously with "foo" replaced by the existing descriptions in this
patch.
