Legacy validator permitting (i)EEG files without sidecars

For iEEG and EEG, the JSON file is not required (we tried using the latest validator). However, they seem to be required for motion capture. CC @dungscout96

Is that by design?

EEG has REQUIRED metadata, as does iEEG. So the absence of JSON sidecar files should be an error.

We tried removing _eeg.json and _ieeg.json from test datasets and the current validator (v.1.14.5) didn't complain about it.

Do you have an example dataset for reproducing?
