There is one way to get WKT2 to do just this. Here's the start of the
thread about that:
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/proj/2019-December/009142.html. TLDR you
use a BOUNDCRS with an ABRIDGEDTRANSFORMATION. Thanks again, Even, for
pointing us in this direction.

This is not ideal though. Like Even said, this (mis)use of BOUNDCRS doesn't
fit very cleanly in PROJ9 at the moment.

Sincerely, Erixen
