I think I misunderstood your emphasis. I've seen folks position reproducible builds as the best and only solution to trust and integrity problems; I buttonholed you as the same.
I do appreciate the general benefits of controlling the factors which go into an asset. Build reproducibility is a standard that requires a high capability to track and control your assets. In that respect it's an excellent goal.
Recapping: I say yes to reproducibility as a practice, but I don't see it as a substitute for an accounting mechanism. They're complementary.
