There's some logic that this could be allowed - it's a coord along no dimensions (whereas in the previous case it had to be on a dimension, unspecified). But that's what attributes are, so I'm not sure whether this is something we should support. Does anyone know whether this is a deliberate decision?","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,484089737
