Frequentist modeling isn’t useful, but that’s not how studies are evaluated. Let’s suppose your looking at a bunch of COVID studies and you ask yourself what if one or more of them was fraudulent?

Your investigation isn’t limited to the data provided by them it’s going to look for more information beyond the paper. This isn’t a failure of frequentist models because they evaluate the study and it’s output separately.
