If "accession" is in the metadata TSV (as it currently is) then augur export v2 will always export it. Additionally it's being used as the node "name" as the current workflow (and parent PR, and current HEAD) use accession as the ID / newick-names.
PPX data has a well-formed strain name, so I'd consider using "strain" as the ID throughout both ingest & phylo, and thus having "PPX_accession" and "INSDC_accession" but no "accession" key. There may be reasons to not want to do this that I am oblivious to.
If we did use a display-default of "tip_label": "strain" then we would still want to delete the automatically-added "accession" somehow, although it wouldn't be a deal-breaker.
