This argument quickly tends towards absurdum. Even with all of the materials, equipment and original experimenters, you cannot reproduce the context of the original results. But we can do our best to ensure that we can try to reproduce the original results. So, while I might not be able to reproduce your raw data, I can at least make sure your analysis is error-free (we can argue about its correctness). Going further, if I have the necessary equipement, you can send me the raw materials (especially in the life sciences) so that I can try to reproduce your raw data in my lab. Etc as remains practical (obviously I can't ask you to send me samples from your breeder cores).
