"replication crisis"

I agree that the utility of revisiting an already well-researched question is low, but I don't think it's entirely wasted. Replication and in particular failure to replicate existing results is when a team can learn good things, rarely a breakthrough, often just that their procedures need refinement.

Absolutely there are much higher priority work to which public funds should go.
