The importance of this is still up in the air in my opinion. An issue comes up that we would have to retain a record of which snp for every variable. This is possible but it maybe makes the column number of the output table a little large for my liking.
An idea would be to output a separate table as an element of the output list.
I think a different way to look at it would be to output a list of every snp assigned to each gene. If the user had this they could easily track back to any metric of their choice by referencing the snp table output by the make_tables() function
