For what it's worth, I've also noticed similar issues with TCS files I've generated from mira and convert_project when trying to use them to generate some summary statistics. See below.

Are you sure that there are no reads? Actually, the tcov column in my TCS files is <always> 5 for every location, regardless of the coverage and whether it's a mapping or de novo project. > > > Second, in regions where there are no reads mapped, I'm finding > > > coverages of more than 1, and quality scores for bases that aren't > in > > > the reference.

Would you have some (smaller) > CAF of MAF which shows that? I have also seen this same behavior. As far as I can tell, an extra base count gets added to the "C" column for every location where there is only backbone, no reads.
