feels like we should also be skipping this for mode="w" to allow overwriting the existing encoding?

Can you expand on what you mean? Is that because we would have just written these vars so already know their values/schema?

mode="w" means overwrite so we shoudn't care about encoding on disk, no?

I added a test, the encoding does get update as expected with mode="w", so presumably zarr is nuking the store with mode="w".

k: v
for k, v in self.get_variables().items()
if k in existing_variable_names
},
self.get_attrs(),
)
# Modified variables must use the same encoding as the store.
