At the heart of the problem is that "replication" experiment have the same "novelty" or "sensationalist" demands required of regular research papers.
It's like the difficulty in creating "anti-art" and finding it exhibited in a museum.
We need to get rid of this format and focus on deliverables, and more modern forms of discourse such a collective knowledge curating like wiki pages, git repositories, or patents.

If on the other hand its just a novelty study that doesn't lead to any further studies (and happens to be flawed), it will be forgotten about. Curious if other think this would be the case?
