@JonathanGregory Am I right in understanding that back in the day the whole grid_mapping scheme in CF was added to annotate the relationship between lat and lon variables (which were always required) and X and Y variables? If the purpose was annotation and that annotation was itself optional, there was no actual need for the grid_mapping attributes provide sufficient information to do the transformation.
