Ah, that's my bad. It should be just `data.load()`. Incidentally, what are you using this function for? It might make more sense just to stop using the function.

Would this be sufficient? ```python schema = bst.schema.load_schema() return schema.bids_version ```

So what happened here is https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-specification/pull/2115, where we started compiling the `schema.json` file during the package build, so we now include that instead of the `schema/` directory. Loading JSON is...

I don't think I understand that last comment. What's ruamel.yaml trying to do?

I can't access that. Sent a request, if you have admin. In any event, if it should have been required, we should open a PR to clearly state that it...

FWIW, here are the datasets with iEEG directories with no `electrodes.tsv`: * [ds002844](https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds002844) * [ds003029](https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds003029) * [ds003078](https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds003078) * [ds003498](https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds003498) * [ds003754](https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds003754) * [ds004127](https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds004127) I agree that people using non-BIDS files...

I think making the file required is fine. The values in tabular files have always been allowed to be set to `n/a` to indicate missing data. We do not need...
