Comment (by rouault):

 > What is an epoch?

 See https://docs.opengeospatial.org/as/18-005r4/18-005r4.html#68

 > Can it be resolved by having T timestamp dimension in coordinates?

 That would be overkill. The finest reasonable granularity for a coordinate
 epoch is the geometry level, not the vertex. Note that the coordinate
 epoch is not necessarily the timestamp at which it was collected. This
 could be a few months or years before. This pretty much depends on the
 processing done in the acquisition device.
