"the controversy all boils down to a misunderstanding about LIGO's methods for analyzing its data." This plus the mentioned secrecy is the modus operandi in the physics community.

No open data, no open calculation how you reached a certain theoretical result and no open code with which the simulation/analysis is done.

There is also the case to be made for a reproducibility crisis in the hard sciences.
