There was a problem hiding this comment.
Sorry this as lingered @edsaac! I think this is a good quick example of a possible papercut while using Cartopy and how to avoid it. It would be nice if we could fix the underlying cause and not be dependent on the order of calling set_extent, but this is a good first step of highlighting the issue.
I have a few nits on wordsmithing, feel free to modify those even further.

Rationale
Plotting a raster image with
ax.imshowrequires data to be warped and reprojected. This does not works well if the map's extent is not set in advance. I am adding an additional example to the documentation to cover that common pitfall:imshowfails when transform projection is different that the axes projection #2480Implications
This is just an additional example to put in the documentation; no functionality in the package is modified. Below is a screenshot of rebuilding the docs with sphinx:
