In my very naive opinion; borrowing the open-source (or at least source available) models from software would benefit nearly every industry.
git clone x.git & cd x & make
Same for chemistry. Sometimes the details are not easy to reproduce. Are the reactives pure enough? How do you mix them without increasing the temperature too much? Fumes? Contamination? How do you separate the solid part and clean it? Even with a foolproof recipe, it's a lot of work to get something useful.
Yes, therefore the solution would be to let everyone to keep reinventing the wheel?
Put differently, there's a big difference between being able to make one of something once and establishing supply chains for scalable industrialized production and distribution resilient against economic and availability changes. If we didn't have more than one way to make wheels from scratch, one day we might wake up to find we no longer have a way to make them at all.
