(does CFTime use a similar scheme?)
I think we don't have a scheme to save multiindex yet but need to manually convert by `reset_index`.
#1077

Maybe we can decide this encoding-decoding API before #1603.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,638947370

Though I have no experience with this gather compression, it looks that python-netcdf4 does not have this function impremented.

One thing we can do is
`sparse -> multiindex -> reset_index > netCDF`
or maybe we can even add a function to skip constructing a multiindex but just make flattened index arrays from a sparse array.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,638947370
