Keep in mind that there're different kinds of research software. Take Seurat[1] as an example. There's CI, issue tracking, etc. It might not be the prettiest code you ever seen, but it absolutely has to be maintainable as it's being actively developed. Such projects are rare, but the low quality is often an indication of a software that isn't used by anyone.

Back in the 70s my dad worked a bit with them when he was employed for UTHERCC: The University of Texas Health, Education, and Research Computer Center. You can find references to UTHERCC in papers from that era. Come to think of it, something like UTHERCC might be exactly what is needed to help the current situation.
