Additional Information

The bad1.tif file has a projected coordinate system name of WGS_1984_UTM_Zone 58N. Normally, that would mean WKID=32658. However, the linear unit of the file is 'Feet' (0.3048 conversion to meter), so this definition is not the same as the definition for 32658. Even if the TIFF had a definition that matches except for the name, it would still have a WKID of 0. Everything has to match the internal definition, and numeric values like parameters have to match quite closely.

Workaround

For the well-known ID (WKID) number:

Open ArcGIS Pro, right-click the raster in the Catalog pane and choose the coordinate system icon. Select the same coordinate system.

Note: This does not save the file, only the project. If the script is used, it still displays 'Unknown' or '0'.
