fletcher4 was only an option for snv_128, which was quickly pulled and
replaced with snv_128b which removed fletcher4 as an option.

The official post is here:

It looks like fletcher4 is still an option in snv_151a for non-dedup
datasets, and is in fact the default.

As an aside: Erik, any idea when the 159 bits will make it to the public?
