There are situations when it would be nice to know what parameters were used to generate the given file. This can be determined implicitly by the sweep system, but when individual files are taken, having knowledge would be useful.
Also, we can then use this to make smarter programs.
For instance, if a truth table has been generated using thresholds, then subsequently scoring algorithms should be smart enough to check the thresholds and either report an error or first pre-filter input clusterings when there is a mismatch.
Eg. TT with contigs > 1000bp. Then a clustering generated with contigs > 500bp should first get pre-filtered. In the reverse case, where the comparison will be missing data, an error should occur.
