Good point! Hmm...
If I understand correctly, homogeneous coordinates have additional independent dimensions, but are many-to-one instead of constraining their parameters. Maybe normalized homogeneous coordinates? That's not a particularly interesting system.
I'm now second guessing my definition of coordinate system...

Would points in a simplex qualify as a coordinate system? Their dimensions would have to sum to 1. That is, so-called "normalized" barycentric coordinates maybe, as opposed to standard barycentric coordinates?
