In theory, yes. The actual main point of doing research, from the researcher's point of view, is to advance their career. Typically this means posting cutting-edge results in high impact journals using novel methods. Relinquishing control over crucial details allowing a researcher to continue publishing high-impact papers would increase the competition for the researcher in that academic space, making it harder for that individual to advance their career.
