Everyone&#x27;s doing replication work in undergrad, it just happens to be replication of the &quot;highlights&quot; or most important results. Farmed out the replication of every result to undergrads would, one be a practical&#x2F;logistical nightmare, and two lead to less reliability in what a degree means. One student could spend their time working on a important result gaining tons of insight and expertise while another could be stuck replicating a task that turned out to be worthless bullshit and have very little to show for it.
