It is dubious to claim that being approved by reviewers should not
involve replication.

|"My guess is there are between 5 and 10 million peer reviews a year, but it|
|only takes 4 or 5 anecdotes, some way off base, to generate broad claims   |
|of wholesale corruption, that is hurting science. This is what social      |
|movements feed on, and there is plenty to go around.                       |
|                                                                           |
|[. . .]"                                                                   |

Lack of replication harms science.
