So they would suffer the same decay all other web resources do? Broken links, no longer maintained tools, their opinionated choice (or lack of flexibility - which text + mathematical notation do have - if a set of stacks and data formats gets standardized).
Nobody is preventing scientists from publishing code and data in addition to & before the paper, which imho itself should be as conservative in format as possible to provide the most universal baseline for understanding, reproducibility, and reliability.

Tools like Zenodo [1] are meant to solve this exact problem, and ensure these kinds of data don't suffer web decay.
