The example I gave was just demonstrating that the dimension is not required for the crs coordinate variable.

I agree with the functionality that would support standardizing the crs as a coordinate variable on load for the case you specified. That way, the read in file will always behave the same and writing to netCDF it would be output correctly.

This all sounds like it is heading in a good direction. 👍
