Large scale reproducibility was a problem a few years back for one. Conda and containers were a constant problem for us back then, especially if you had multiple NGS tools running in different environments. This has probably been solved by now, but we went with another workflow system

Nextflow seems to scale very well

You can't go wrong with nextflow. I heard a lot of scientists complaining that it's too hard to understand, but honestly the DSl and the scheduling model (flow based) is just great

Agreed, Conda has always been a nightmare to maintain and redeploy, whatever you put it in.
