The more I read this the more it hurts, and my interpretation has changed. CF allows for multiple coordinate variables, for example in ROMS datasets with staggered grids, there are 3 types of coordinates, eta_u, eta_v and rho. This is allowed, so the idea that every geophysical variable must be associated with every coordinate is wrong.
I think the best we can do with this one is to check that any auxiliary coordinates have a subset of dimensions, like we do with grids.
This was a hard read but basically:
The association can be:
