Not at all.  We don't run any leak checker on the full test suite as
part of each and every CI build, do we?  And just like no one is
arguing against you running a leak checker on the full test suite, no
one is arguing against you running a JSON schema validation on the
full test suite, either.

To my understanding patch 2 is only a proof of concept: it starts
using a programming language that has not been used before in this
project, to implement functionality that is readily available in
several existing tools, without even arguing (let alone convincingly
arguing) in the commit message why this approach is a good idea.
