I agree, coordinate is the correct term. We could make that a bit less confusing by using a non-dimension coordinate in the example, but then again the point is that any coordinate can have additional metadata.

But I think the concept of dimension-coordinates (when the coordinate has the same name as the dimension) is still relevant.

If I remember correctly, while they lost their status as the only ones having an index dimension coordinates are still used for alignment.
