Preset meta-large uses --min-count 1 #266

The preset meta-large uses the option --min-count 1, in contrast to the default --min-count 2:

opt.min_count = 1

This is not mentioned in the help message:

meta-large: '--k-min 27 --k-max 127 --k-step 10'

I also noticed this, and wonder why? Wouldn't complex metagenomes benefit from a higher --min-count setting? Or is this not as straightforward, because complex metagenomes might contain both organisms that are present at very high coverage and at low coverage?
