I was running into a difference in reference alignment positions between standard PAF alignment output and the SAM output from minimap2. This appears due to not performing base-level alignment in the standard PAF output. Equivalence is:

minimap2 -a ref.fa reads.fq
minimap2 -c ref.fa reads.fq

but these are different

minimap2 -a ref.fa reads.fq
minimap2 ref.fa reads.fq
