Apparently the handling of the steps/nosteps arguments in fba_rerun is not properly done.
In fba_rerun, steps/nosteps are arguments of the script, ie can overrule what is stored in the fiberassign FAARGS header.
I guess the initial thought was for instance to disable the qa step when running reproducibility tests.
I tried to reproduce tileid=82637: this tile is a tertiary (prognum=1) file, where fba_launch is called in a special mode, with --nosteps scnd --targ_std_only --too_tile --custom_too_file $TOOFN.
The --nosteps scnd disables the query of the secondary targets catalogs.
However, when running fba_rerun on tileid=82637, it runs with the scnd step, hence failing to exactly reproduce the assignment/potential_assignments.
