The warning can suggest using a `dict`.

This sounds great to me!

One of the great qualities of xarray is the code we write in exploration also works in production, and this behavior violates some of that.
I'd vote for a warning as getting some of the way to a solution

FWIW passing a dict to these methods will work, if you want complete dependability","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,495920497
