Think of coverage as horizontal and depth as vertical. If depth is given
as "15X", that means every sequenced genomic position has about 15 sequences
per position (a.k.a. 15 replicates per locus). For clarity, when we say "depth",
we are referring to this "vertical" description of replicates per locus.

### Depth, in context
Historically, one would have wanted to sequence fewer individuals at higher depth
to get confident genotype calls, rather than sequence more individuals at lower depth.
