Given the rising increase in microbiome studies, it might be good to include an additional QC step for deeper sequencing calculations for metagenomes.
Describe the solution you'd like
This can be done with nonpariel

Advantages:
- It's already in conda
- Sort of like Preseq but doesn't require reference, runs just on FASTQ files
Describe alternatives you've considered
Disadvantage:
- we already have Preseq so maybe sort of giving reundency (but see above)
It might not be so relevent given EAGER is meant to be genome reconstruction, but as we have MALT for first step as pathogen screening, it could be useful?
It would be good to get other people's opinions on this.
