it's a known issue and science in general is improving on the reproducibility front.
i think that technological complexity kind of snuck up on many fields and it has taken time for the very competitive research culture to adapt.
releasing data was a complicated proposition back in the 2000s, where today more and more are appreciating the need for it.
i think the real solution to all these problems comes from adjusting the funding model. there should be more money available for those who are willing to do the less exciting work of completely reproducing pivotal results from scratch.
