# References and relevant issues Found this while working through #1117 and realized also relveant to #1113 # Description Due to the changes with box Xarray and axis_labels inheritance, this guide can be cleaned up quite a bit, which is nice because then it focuses on the actual handedness info! I opted for a new PR since this touches both related things and it would be easier to review this way? I hope :laugh:

This is unnecessary because of the xarray inheritance, right?

All good, but minor query about the update to handedness.md?

Description
Softly updates the guides to reflect the new axis labels inheritance behavior. For now, I didn't totally remove the ability to set it directly on the dims, but I think we are working towards that? I'm not sure how strongly we want to do that yet, given the popup renaming exists as does the API.
Especially happy to hear folks ideas on how best to go about this, but I mostly wanted to be 0.9 ready.
