Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating the existing checks that verify SOFA variable dimensions and conventions, then inspect how character arrays and the string dimension S are represented. Done means multi-dimensional character arrays are rejected when S is not their last dimension, with the corresponding verification covered by a test.
