I think you need to declare reference to location.json differently, not using /#defs prefix.

See this comment with explanation how ajv works

Thanks for your reply, I'm using the # json pointer because according to the RJSF docs on Schema definitions and references
its the only type of ref RJSF supports

Note that this library only supports local definition referencing. The value in the $ref keyword should be a JSON Pointer in URI fragment identifier format.

After reading the json schema docs for $id I noticed it says this:

When the $id keyword appears in a subschema, it means something slightly different. See the bundling section for more.

I don't fully understand why but after removing the $id from the sub-schema (in $defs) it appears to be working now

Yes, this is exactly what is explained in the comment I referenced.
