 ===== 10x Single Cell (excluding ATAC) =====
-We do not generate FASTQ index reads for most single cell library types. The **only** difference having these files available makes to the analysis is giving a number to the quality of the indexes in a CellRanger report. If these reads are not available CellRanger unfortunately reports this as a warning in the report, whereas (in our opinion) it should just quietly not report the value.
+We do not generate FASTQ index reads for most single cell library types. We have had communication with 10x support and they have confirmed that not having the index read FASTQ makes no difference to the analysis. As such, the additional storage outweighs having a number for index read quality. The same logic as quoted earlier applies: would you re-demultiplex in a different way with index quality scores?
