> the cost of the hardware and compute time needed to process the data is available to a tiny number of research groups You'd think this would make them more interested in replication, since otherwise the likelihood that they are actually doing something of value is uncertain. Science and research is full of all kinds of false starts, you don't increase your speed by blinding yourself. Falsification is the very definition of science.
