Um, @martinjuckes **did** literally say there are existing files with this 
conflict.  First paragraph under **Status Quo** above:  "Some CMIP6 data, for 
example, has been provided with time coordinates using one form and the bounds 
variable using the other."

Presumably such files are labeled as `Conventions = CF-1.8` or earlier.  So I 
agree, they are technically conformant because of this label, but would be 
non-conformant if re-labeled to a later CF version.

My strict wording of this requirement was intentional, based on the discussion 
up to this point.
