Why do nf-core pipelines use a bin directory instead of nextflows resources/usr/bin?

All files in the bin directory are automatically available in every process. This way we don't have to tell the users to install the scripts 🙂

Ah i see, both are built into nextflow but bin is scoped for the whole pipeline and moduleBinaries is for the respective modules. Thank you

but the scripts used in modules could live within a resources/usr/bin folder next to the module
