I'll let the others chime in as well, but there are a few things to consider here:
- xarray's plotting capability is not meant to be ""publication ready"" but ""as close as possible to the data"". I.e. units like `degrees_north`, etc. have to stay like this because it unambiguously shows where the data came from and how users can access it from the file, etc.
- in general, making the plots nicer with opinionated defaults like yours would be a nice addition to the xarray ecosystem. It could live in a separate package, and use the [accessor](http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/internals.html#extending-xarray) syntax to extend xarray. For example, my own little extension works this way and does opinionated stuff with the accessor: https://salem.readthedocs.io
