sorry i didnt really answer jonathan's concern. I would suggest this
wording:

Auxiliary coordinates do not have to be monotonic or have unique values,
and may contain missing values. Data providers may choose to put valid
data where the auxiliary coordinates are missing, but applications are
free to assume that data is missing where the auxiliary coordinates are
missing.
