Then increase it to what you need. The whole point of #foo-cells is that 
it is variable depending on what the provider needs.

Please explain the problem you are trying to solve, not your solution. I 
don't understand what the problem is to provide any useful suggestions 
on the design.

Is this a recognized tag? First I've seen it.

$defs is for when you need multiple copies of the same thing. I don't 
see that here.

Unit-addresses are hex.

As you are defining the addressing here, you need to define what the 
"addresses" are.

This leaves the 2nd entry undefined. You need the dictionary form of 
'items' rather than a list. IOW, Drop the '-' under items.
