The disconnect between "most scientists agree there is a reproducibility crisis" and "most scientists believe most of the papers they read are basically true and reproducible" has extended to every domain in my experience.

With the way the funding model currently works, my hypothesis is that doing more, completely reproducible studies will drown out the non-reproducible studies (and funding model) with reproducible studies (funders ultimately vote with their checkbooks).

That seems like a second logical disconnect and completely impossible if the cost model remained the same. However, the question is do studies operate in a way that is maximally efficient for the scientists or for the economy of science publication and knowledge dissemination. We, at MyIRE, believe that technology can tip the scales in the favor of scientists.
