Like what? Currently, there are no consequences when a paper is retracted. If we retracted more papers, what would the difference be?

Like very valid research being lost because they mention a retracted paper for some minor point that doesn’t really have a major impact on the final results.

That's already something that doesn't happen to blatantly invalid research which is retracted directly. What are you worried about?
