Issue with gene names in simulated data #9

Hi!
I’m currently using a real scRNA-seq reference dataset as input to simuRNAseq, and I noticed that the gene names (rownames) in the simulated counts matrix (dat$counts) do not match the gene names in my original reference panel (input counts matrix).

Would it be possible to clarify:

• Why gene names are randomized or replaced in the output?
• Whether there is a way to retain the original gene identifiers from the input panel?

This would be very helpful for realistic benchmarking scenarios where preserving gene identity is important.

Thank you!
