This came up in the tutorial and I was wondering if the error could be made a little clearer. Not sure if the error message should hint that a user might want to use method.

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import xarray as xr

arr = xr.DataArray(
    data=np.arange(48).reshape(4, 2, 6),
    dims=("u", "v", "time"),
    coords={
        "u": [-3.2, 2.1, 5.3, 6.5],
        "v": [-1, 2.6],
        "time": pd.date_range("2009-01-05", periods=6, freq="M"),
    },
)
arr.sel(u=5, time="2009-04-28")  # I removed `method="nearest"`

Before this PR:

...
KeyError: 5.0

After this PR:

...
KeyError: "not all values found in index 'u'. Did you mean to set `method=`?"
