That is a factor most people miss when thinking about the replication crisis. For the harder physical sciences a wrong paper will fairly quickly be found because as people go to expand on the ideas/use that data and get results that don't match the model informed by paper X they're going to eventually figure out that X is wrong. There might be issues with getting incentives to write and publish that negative result but each paper where the results of a previous paper are actually used in the new paper is a form of replication.
