   Thanks for the additional background, @paleolimbot and @jorisvandenbossche!
   
   > if I understand you correctly, then yes I think that is not correct. WKB 
data is defined to be x/y, and almost any producer of WKB values or file format 
using WKB under the hood (including GeoParquet) will use the mapping of x=lon / 
y=lat.
   
   That's great! I think that the metadata and data should match. If it is 
already the convention of libraries to override the CRS definition and write 
both WKB and bboxes with x=longitude and y=latitude, when we should just make 
that clear.
   
   What about saying that the x dimension always represents longitude and y 
always represents latitude, for both WKB values and for the bbox structs in 
metadata?
   
   > Use the GeoParquet/GeoArrow/GeoPackage/Industry standard language and see 
if there are any issues (I'm not aware of any in several years of experience 
with GeoArrow/GeoParquet)
   
   What is this language? Does it state basically what I said above? From what 
@jorisvandenbossche says, it sounds like that is the case.
