I'd keep allele matching criteria fixed across the withheld-region comparisons, since the [Truvari study](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36575487/) shows that over-merging structural variants can inflate allele frequencies.

Are you proposing long reads followed by PCR as a follow-up, or pointing to validation performed in the prawn study? Its [abstract](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42288228/) reports comparative rearrangements but doesn't specify either assay.

The [abstract](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42259484/) reports independent second trophectoderm and inner cell mass sampling for low-pass sequencing, but material for junction confirmation remains unspecified.

The abstract identifies six irrigated and six rainfed environments, while the figure description places them across several sites and years. That structure means recurrence under both water regimes at one site and year should not count like recurrence across independent site and year combinations. A stronger check is whether each locus recurs across different site and year combinations with consistent effect direction, then survives evaluation in a withheld environment or population.
