This nice abstract inspired me to think about reproducibility of

Yes, that's the problem.
For stable releases though, we have the time, and we can (I suspect) get
the compute cycles to run heavy regression tests. Would that be a
worthwhile project?
Well, it is not me who raised this problem

Regression testing, as mentioned, or running some fixed analysis and
statistically comparing the results to past runs.
We worry about reproducibility in my field of

That is why we have backports.org and neuro.debian.net that offer at

enough.
To me (IMHO) that feels like _the_ solution, when combined with the
debian snapshot service.
Exactly that
