Well I guess I'm one, if you expand the consideration between a single arbitrary paper. The operative word in my previous comment is “quality”. Since we operate in the real world with constraints on resources like time and labor, making the haystack needlessly big can become a problem with replication. I want to focus my time on the highest quality papers because they are the most likely to be replicated in a useful manner. There is no sorting mechanism in open publishing so I may waste unseemly amounts of time trying to read and replicate crap. Publishing is far from perfect, but it does help separate the wheat from the chaff. (This point has already been discussed in this thread so I won't belabor the conversation further).
