A final schema (not used by other schemas) must always finish with
additional/unevaluatedProperties false. You have errors since beginning
- I wrote about it in your first patchset (v1). You had error visible
after adding proper unevaluatedProperties in proper place.

You have partitions node, for partitions. But you reference only *one*
partition.
