Yeah — that is the case in pandas. But in xarray, we can have dims without indexes, so adding one is making a change...","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1222215528

Therefore, if no index exists and ascending=True, no index in the output is correct.

But then again I agree that it is easy for users to add an index.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1222215528

If that's correct I would vote against this; I empathize with the confusion, but then the caller can add an index, and generally we don't want different values of arguments to create different schema without a very obvious and explicit connection between them.

Tbh even if the proposal is to add the index for any value of `ascending`, I'd be marginally against; it's not what I'd expect as a user. But open-minded on this.
