Suspicion: Before the save/publish action, the object is cleaned up in the backend (after this call), which removes the basic_info object which inside has the required: ["cadi_id"]. This essentially removes the required from the object before running the validation, causing the above issue.

This can be solved for that schema by marking basic_info as required, but I would consider reviewing how we clean up objects in the backend.

Note that if we try with a new schema created in the admin the issue is not there, even if we use object nesting (obj > obj > req test field).

Needs a bit more investigation and discussion.
