Drop description.

You OTOH, miss ref to pwm schema. Referencing here in description should
raise you questions... And then use unevaluatedProperties.

Drop sentence, you never need to explain standard properties. It only
adds bloat and more places to fix/change if we do any refactoring.

Only this is needed.
