Replicating the results of existing papers is important too



That is a different issue, though. The "Related Work" section is there to tell the reader about related approaches to similar problems, previous research on the same topic, etc. It's where you distinguish your work from what was previously done, and justify why this is a meaningful distinction. It's "what others have done and why we don't just use that".

Reproducibility is important but a completely different topic and I don't know why you're bringing it up here.
