Research direction

Locate the implementations and tests for local_from_global() and global_from_local() in the distarray codebase. Read how these functions currently handle index inputs, then determine the expected behavior for slices before updating both paths. Done means both conversions handle slices consistently and the relevant tests cover that behavior.
