    """Compose a Molecule dict from unvalidated arrays and variables, returning dict.

    See fields of Return molrec below. Required parameters (for QM XYZ)
    are `geom` and one of `elem`, `elez`, `elbl` (`speclabel=True`)

    Parameters
    ----------
    geom : array-like
        (nat, 3) or (3 * nat, ) ndarray or list o'lists of Cartesian coordinates.
    fragment_separators : array-like of int, optional
        (nfr - 1, ) list of atom indices at which to split `geom` into fragments.
    elbl : ndarray of str
        (nat, ) Label extending `elem` symbol, possibly conveying ghosting, isotope, mass, tagging information.
    tooclose : float, optional
        Interatom distance (native `geom` units) nearer than which atoms not allowed.
    nonphysical : bool, optional
        Do allow masses outside an element's natural range to pass validation?
    speclabel : bool, optional
        If `True`, interpret `elbl` as potentially full nucleus spec including
        ghosting, isotope, mass, tagging information, e.g., `@13C_mine` or
        `He4@4.01`. If `False`, interpret `elbl` as only the user/tagging
        extension to nucleus label, e.g. `_mine` or `4` in the previous examples.
    missing_enabled_return : {'minimal', 'none', 'error'}
        What to do when an enabled domain is of zero-length? Respectively, return
        a fully valid but empty molrec, return empty dictionary, or throw error.
    np_out : bool, optional
        When `True`, fields geom, elea, elez, elem, mass, real, elbl will be ndarray.
        Use `False` to get a json-able version.

    Returns
    -------
    molrec : dict
        Molecule dictionary spec follows. Its principles are

        (1) contents are fully validated and defaulted - no error
        checking necessary,

        (2) contents may be mildly redundant - atomic numbers and
        element symbols present,

        (3) big system, nat-length single-type arrays, not small system,
        nat-number heterogeneous objects,

        (4) some fields are optional (e.g., fix_symmetry) but largely
        self-describing so units or fix_com must be present.

        (5) apart from some mild optional fields, _all_ fields will
        be present (corollary of "fully validated and defaulted") - no
        need to check for every key. in some cases like efp, keys will
        appear in blocks, so pre-handshake there will be a few hint keys
        and post-handshake they will be joined by full qm-like molrec.

        (6) molrec should be idempotent through this function (equiv to
        schema validator) but are not idempotent throughout its life. if
        fields permit, frame may be changed. Future? if fields permit,
        mol may be symmetrized. Coordinates and angles may change units
        or range if program returns them in only one form.

    name : str, optional
        Label for molecule; should be valid Python identifier.
    units : {'Angstrom', 'Bohr'}
        Units for `geom`.
    input_units_to_au : float, optional
        If `units='Angstrom'`, overrides consumer's value for [A]-->[a0] conversion.
    fix_com : bool
        Whether translation of `geom` is allowed or disallowed.
    fix_orientation : bool
        Whether rotation of `geom` is allowed or disallowed.
    fix_symmetry : str, optional
        Maximal point group symmetry which `geom` should be treated. Lowercase.
    geom : ndarray of float
        (3 * nat, ) Cartesian coordinates in `units`.
    elea : ndarray of int
        (nat, ) Mass number for atoms, if known isotope, else -1.
    elez : ndarray of int
        (nat, ) Number of protons, nuclear charge for atoms.
    elem : ndarray of str
        (nat, ) Element symbol for atoms.
    mass : ndarray of float
        (nat, ) Atomic mass [u] for atoms.
    real : ndarray of bool
        (nat, ) Real/ghostedness for atoms.
    elbl : ndarray of str
        (nat, ) Label with any tagging information from element spec.
    fragment_separators : list of int
        (nfr - 1, ) list of atom indices at which to split `geom` into fragments.
    fragment_charges : list of float
        (nfr, ) list of charge allocated to each fragment.
    fragment_multiplicities : list of int
        (nfr, ) list of multiplicity allocated to each fragment.
    molecular_charge : float
        total charge on system.
    molecular_multiplicity : int
        total multiplicity on system.
    comment : str, optional
        Additional comment for molecule.
    provenance : dict of str
        Accumulated history of molecule, with fields "creator", "version", "routine".
    connectivity : list of tuples of int, optional
        (nbond, 3) list of (0-indexed) (atomA, atomB, bond_order) (int, int, double) tuples

    EFP extension (this + units is minimal)

    fragment_files : list of str
        (nfr, ) lowercased names of efp meat fragment files.
    hint_types : {'xyzabc', 'points'}
        (nfr, ) type of fragment orientation hint.
    geom_hints : list of lists of float
        (nfr, ) inner lists have length 6 (xyzabc; to orient the center) or
        9 (points; to orient the first three atoms) of the EFP fragment.

    QMVZ extension (geom_unsettled replaces geom)

    geom_unsettled : list of lists of str
        (nat, ) all-string Cartesian and/or zmat anchor and value contents
        mixing anchors, values, and variables.
    variables : list of pairs
        (nvar, 2) pairs of variables (str) and values (float). May be incomplete.
