I have, obviously, considered this. My conclusion is not that it is a good or bad idea, but that no-one will pay for it. It is the most extraordinarily hard sell you can imagine to funding bodies. The barriers / resistance are extreme.https://twitter.com/talyarkoni/status/1082006674070794240 …

Strongly second
@Meaningness on this point. There's a small handful of philanthropic orgs that are really excited about this kind of work. Lot of serious difficulties to sort out for the idea to look promising though. -
E.g., It's easier and more motivating for researchers to search for errors in research they disagree with. Deciding what work is important to look into requires taking contentious positions. Hard to be effective w/o being partisan. Doesn't feel like open science if partisan.
