While trying to lint json/item\_groups.json, I have encountered the following bit of JSON which the linter cannot understand:

` {
    "type" : "item_group",
    "id" : "razorclaw_nest",
    "subtype" : "distribution",
    "entries":[
      {"item":"razorclaw_roe", "repeat": [1,6]}
    ]
  },`  
Linter cannot understand “repeat”:

Is this a bug?

It’s a bug because the author meant to use “count”: [1, 6] instead. doc/ITEM\_SPAWN.md has all the information about item groups.
