We are using heights later on for some calculations, this might break

@zssherman Well, it doesn't, and I've tested it. Note that ds also has the 'heights' dim name changed prior to this PR.
As it stands, ARM currently holds only the b1 MMCR files, which have that dimension. The issue was with read-only files. Other than that, everything remained the same.
You can try the few lines of code in the issue I opened and see that it works.

Yeah i was curious on why we are checking for nans later on etc for height and if that would break if we had range, but I see we check for range as well. Thanks for the clarification.

Tests failing is unrelated to this PR |
…did not work on my mac after downloading data.

@isilber I was running into errors when using this change on my local machine but I've tested this out on read only files and seems to work. Would you be able to test this out first before we merge? |
