But for bars should be high: it needs to be worth potential turmoil when users update their code.

For example, we could argue that `x.equals(y)` should be equivalent to `bool((x == y).all())` (aside from NaNs), and note that in the docs.

I'm not sure what rule we could use for dropping scalar coordinates in particular. Adding an exception to the rules for only scalar coordinates would be a non-starter. The only alternative rule that seems at all sensible is that indexed coordinates only have the minimal set of coordinates (i.e., equivalent to calling `.reset_coords(drop=True)`).","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,230529125

In other words, why would da.coords['x'] contain some_attr as well?

The rule we currently use to propagate coordinates is to keep all other coordinates whose dimensions are contained in the dimensions of the coordinate, i.e., coordinates are presumed to describe not only the data-array, but an entire shared coordinate system. This is the same rule we use for choosing which coordinates to put on a DataArray when indexing a Dataset.

I'm certainly open to alternatives if we can find a simple way to express this.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,230529125

Though I can see why we might want to change `.equals()` to ignore these: `x.equals(y)` is generally intended to be equivalent to `(x == y).all()`.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,230529125
