We had some discussion in the @Clinical-Genomics/rare-disease team and we find the filename managed_variants.vcf to be somewhat confusing. The file name is ambiguous as it is not clear whether these are recurring variants that have been managed and can be safely dismissed or are variants that should always be displayed. We would like to rename the file to critical_variants.vcf to indicate their importance.
I am not a big fan of the suggestion critical variants, but I agree that managed variants is not that clear either.
What about pathogenic variants, or clinically relevant variants?
