We've been trying to set up an idealised configuration in isopycnal coordinates with sponges. After lots of trial and error and with the detective skills of @angus-g we (re)discovered that ADIABATIC=TRUE won't allow sponges.

Retrospectively, it makes sense. But perhaps enhancing the docstring a bit to explicitly say that sponges only work in adiabatic configurations would be good?

Hallberg-NOAA added a commit to Hallberg-NOAA/MOM6 that referenced this issue Jul 2, 2021
  Add checks for inconsistent parameter settings in adiabatic_driver_init() when
ADIABATIC = True, and issue instructive error messages if any are found.  This
PR addresses MOM6 issue mom-ocean#1417.  All answers are bitwise identical, although some
cases where the inconsistent parameter settings were previously ignored may now
issue fatal errors and will not run.
