Dear @JimBiardCics Yes, I agree that many projected coordinate systems look somewhat like east-north, but not all of them, for example stereographic. CF also allows rotated pole, which is not true east-north by construction, and and indeed any sort of X and Y grid with 2D lat and lon, such as the ocean tripolar grid, which is east-north for a lot of the world, but variably distorted north of a certain latitude as it approaches its two north poles. In such cases it would be misleading to label X and Y as east and north, I feel. Jonathan
