Noooo no rich stuff!!!!! Makes it much harder to copy and paste 😭🫠🫠😭🫠😭🫠😭

I'm on the fence on this one. Usually I also prefer plain text output because it is just easier to pipe, but rich is used a lot in nf-core, right?
How about another flag -t, --plain-text to print plain text output instead of a rich table? Or we could always default to plain text, if -u or -g is given.

Latter is probably best I think, as makes me and you happy but default sticks with the typical nf-core convention

Oh and one more general question: Whats our stance on type hints @mirpedrol ? Should I add them?
Their use across nf-core seemed a bit inconsistent to me, at first. But now I see them more and more :D

[mirpedrol]

We are slowly adopting them when we add new code or modify old code, so yes, you should add them 😄

Could you have another look at your previous review @mirpedrol ?
