You can safely ignore it (or avoid it by adding --config GDAL_SKIP ZARR, 
although this is not a Zarr issue, just the trigger). Fixed per 
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/commit/0f889cea1395ebee62630653bc0fa505c4f0c6df

Ah this is a bit tricky. You shouldn't put double quotes around the 
range as this is numeric values.

$ gdal mdim convert 
/vsicurl/https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/SL.us008001/ST.opnl/DF.gr2/DC.ndfd/AR.conus/VP.001-003/ds.qpf.bin 
tst.tif --subset 'TIME(1763164800,1763251200)' --array QPF_0-SFC --co 
COMPRESS=DEFLATE --overwrite

But there was actually a bug, which will be fixed per 
https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/13420
