My feeling is that [[1., 5.]] shoud be equivalent to [[[1., 0.], [0.,
5.]]]. I'm not sure why that isn't working correctly.

That's not surprising. Use a single FaceVariable or CellVariable of
rank 2 for the diffusion coefficient. It's safer to do that for
anisotropy.

I prefer Stackoverflow, but depends on the nature of the question.
Stackoverflow isn't good for very open ended questions or
conversations.
