I am fully in line with the authors. The raw all-sites gVCF is the best material to share and should become the gold standard in genomics to move towards standardized and unbiased Ļ estimates. In addition, more metadata regarding the samples and softwares used is needed, including the versions.
Thibault (Tibo) Leroy
Brault et al. propose guidelines for standardized Ļ estimation, systematic reporting of summary statistics, and the adoption of richer metadata to ensure that population genomic data remain comparable and reusable across a wide range of systems.
