Let's call this STATE 3.

I think Why is on target. This needs to be valid:

   ---
   - a: map
     foo: bar
   -   another: map
       foo: bar

It may have been derived from the following in an editor:

   ---
   - a: map
     foo: bar
     delete_me:
     -   another: map
         foo: bar

If you allow the second, you need to allow the first.
