Comment (by mcginnis):

 Thanks for providing that example!  It's very helpful, and I think I
 actually understand the discussion now.

 Jonathan's interpretation of the example file makes sense to me.  Listing
 the source and the formula terms for the sigma height in the coordinates
 attribute seems strange to me.

 I wouldn't go so far as to actively campaign for assuming that scalar
 coordinate variable implies size-one dimension -- the issue of older files
 NOT assuming that makes me prefer to abstain -- but I will say that it's
 what I always thought it meant based on the CF spec.

 Cheers,

 Seth
