What is your issue?

Copying over @max-sixty's comment from https://github.com/pydata/xarray/pull/8304#discussion_r1358873522

I haven't been in touch with the NameArray discussions so forgive a glib comment — but re https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/3891 — this would be a "once-in-a-library" opportunity to always retain attrs in aggregations, removing the keep_attrs option in methods.

(Xarray could still handle them as it wished, so xarray's external interface wouldn't need to change immediately...)

@pydata/xarray Should we just delete the keep_attrs kwarg completely for NamedArray and always propagate attrs? obj.attrs.clear() seems just as easy to type.
