What is the usefulness of all this? How can you even be sure that each
implementation of this core will have exactly these clocks?

If these are real pins, then this seems more possible, but
additionalItems does not make me happy.

I don't see much value in this schema and I am afraid even enforcing
clock and interrupt names won't work for the second or third user.

Best regards,
