By default, data.table::fread() leaves NAs blank instead of including a literal NA. That's fine for CSVs and if the output is read in by fread, but it breaks other tools for TSVs and is hard to read.
I have updated that and added a message when the table is switched to uncompressed for indexing.
I also replaced a | with a || for a scalar OR in a conditional, and I did some code formatting. If possible, I would love if the literal NA could be integrated. The other stuff is more optional.
