Comment (by jonblower):
Hi all,
Just to add a vote to this debate having talked off-line a while ago with
Jonathan and David, and having read Mark and Jim's comments above. I'm
persuaded that formula_terms and grid_mapping are doing different jobs.
Formula_terms turns dimensionless coordinate values into dimensional ones;
grid_mapping adds information about CRSs that is not already implicitly or
explicitly present. You might need both, for example to turn dimensionless
vertical coordinates into heights (using formula_terms) and then provide
the ellipsoid (using grid_mapping).
Therefore I don't see much benefit in conflating these orthogonal
concepts.
Cheers,
Jon
