@dcherian The main issue here is that we have two different CF things which are applied, Unsigned and _FillValue/missing_value.

For netcdf4-python the values would just be masked and the dtype would be preserved. For xarray it will be cast to float32 because of the _FillValue/missing_value.

I agree, moving the Unsigned Coder out of mask_and_scale should help in that particular case.
