UTF error when submitting multiple 23andMe files

My 23andMe files run fine when I submit only one, but when I submit several I get this error:

2023/03/31 21:45:58 cravat An unexpected exception occurred.

It's likely that one of the input files is gzipped. The second byte in gzip files is always 0x8b. OC doesn't support gzipped 23andme files currently.

That is what is going on! One of the input files was gzipped but did not have a .gz extension.
