None

Minor comments and questions#

  • Why not require a value for units and then make “arbitrary” or some sentinel the value that people must specify to say “no coordinates?”

  • I wonder why Arrays are inherently discrete (see Array coordinate systems, below) but are often used to store discrete samples of a continuous variable. isn’t true of everything? Aren’t the images themselves samplings? In general I wasn’t totally clear on how interpolation works - I understand it is a user-applied “transformation” in which case I think that should be clear.

  • I tend towards not breaking the existing tooling if not necessary, so unless there is a concrete reason to change, I would not change re: the last specific ask in the document of the reviewers.

Recommendation#

Minor changes or accept.
