threads infer --fit_to_data saves allele ages, which in theory are sufficient to perform the imputation step without needing to go through the threads map step. Impact on accuracy remains to be explored, but if allele ages from data-consistent args are good enough to use for imputation, that could simplify the imputation workflow, the imputation algorithm, and the whole theory around mutation mapping vs allele ages in the wider software suite
