Replicable is not a synonym for correct even though some discourse about the science crisis treats it that way. It's necessary but not sufficient. The academic literature is full of studies that will replicate every time but the methods are lacking rigor or are just outright invalid.

A paper that shows a correlation then declares a causation will replicate just fine but still yield wrong conclusions.
