Straw man. Reproducible in this case is talking about the process or steps needed to make a machine. You do not need to repeat the steps to produce the first machine to produce the second machine. You can simply clone the first machine, and Docker makes this very easy to do. That I can clone a machine does not mean that I can clone the interaction between a patient and their drugs, but if I could it would most certainly be preferable to trying to repeat the experiments with larger and larger populations.
