Yes, we could do that, I agree. Off the top of my head I can't remember a
reason why that would cause a problem in aux coord vars - can anyone?

Please could you remind us why this is needed? I mean, if you have a grid
point with coordinates, it must be geolocated, so why can't you also provide
its aux coordinates even though there is no data at that point?

Best wishes
