We should have been treating the input directory as a batch directory and not a plate directory. Moving forward, we will save the profiles and metadata information for multiple plates inside any given batch directory. The folders in this directory will be of the format: "plate-well-site".
We also need to enable a user to customize how the data are aggregated together in both QC and profiling. For instance, if a user wants to make well-level profiles, they should be able to control this in the experiment config file. Or, if a single plate contains multiple experimental conditions, each experimental condition should be handled independently.
This is a major upgrade to the template, that will require corresponding adjustments to the recipe and config files.
