Description
I have an openapi 3.0.1 specification which defines a few response objects which is referenced to another file over the web. This works perfectly fine in the scenario that the object is purely simple, but when the referenced object uses inheritance, redoc stops working.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with the OpenAPI 3.0.1 specification described in the issue: a response object references another web-hosted file whose schema uses inheritance. Compare this with the simple referenced-object case and the screenshots; done means Redoc renders the inherited response objects instead of stopping.
