 If a coordinate variable has any of the attributes marked "BI" (for "inherit") in the "Use" column of <a href="#attribute-appendix">Appendix A, Attributes</a>, they are assumed to apply to its bounds variable as well.
 It is recommended that BI attributes not be included on a boundary variable.
 If a BI attribute is included, it must also be present in the parent variable, and it must exactly match the parent attribute&#8217;s data type and value.
-A boundary variable can only have inheritable attributes if they are also present on its parent coordinate variable.
 A bounds variable may have any of the attributes marked "BO" for ("own") in the "Use" column of <a href="#attribute-appendix">Appendix A, Attributes</a>.
 These attributes take precedence over any corresponding attributes of the parent variable.
 In these cases, the parent variable&#8217;s attribute does not apply to the bounds variable, regardless of whether the latter has its own attribute.</p>
