I'd like to have either A or B, but not both (mutual exclusive.)
I have to use whatever is avaliable in Draft 3, even though it says 4 on the top. Reason being, when using array for "required", it throws an error that it can't convert an array to a boolean. If I remove arrays without putting that I'm using draft 4 [Newtonsoft.Json.Schema.Extensions]::IsValid does not validate. It returns "true" willy nilly.
Yes, I have to use an obsolete Newtonsoft.

Draft 3 does not support OneOf or any of the likes as @dbc mentioned in a comment.
[Newtonsoft.Json.Schema.JsonSchema] uses draft 3 to prase the JSON file. Hence why it was ignoring OneOf AND throwing an error for "required" being an array. In draft 3, "required" can only be a boolean.
To overcome this, use [Newtonsoft.Json.Schema.JSchema] to parse the Schema as a string and [Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JToken] to parse the JSON as a string, and [Newtonsoft.Json.Schema.SchemaExtensions] to validate isntead of [Newtonsoft.Json.Schema.Extensions].
