Per #7437 (comment), we may not want to require all of these methods. We may end up in a situation where BackendEntrypoints must define one or more of open_dataarray, open_dataset, and open_datatree.

This seems pretty doable, e.g.

class MyBaseClass:
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

        # Check that at least one of the methods has been overridden
        if all(getattr(self.__class__, m) is getattr(MyBaseClass, m) for m in ['method1', 'method2', 'method3']):
            raise TypeError("You must implement at least one of 'method1', 'method2', 'method3'")

    def method1(self):
        pass

    def method2(self):

    def method3(self):

class MyDerivedClass(MyBaseClass):

# This will not raise an error
