I suggested that we narrow this even further to one dimension and merge, so we can benefit from this now and consider additions from there.

For me this case supports consistent behavior over any number of dims! Which would mean rejecting the ""stack only if you supply exactly ndims"" proposal.

Completely fine with restricting to one dim for the moment and seeing how that goes (it's always possible to pass `.drop_duplicates_coords(dim1).drop_duplicates_coords(dim2)`.

Were we going with `drop_duplicates` or `drop_duplicates_coords`? No strong view from me at all.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,873519048
