He may not be aware that currently authors are encouraged to support
reproducible research, which includes making available (where possible)

I think the OP's suggestion leads to a number of interesting use cases.
There are certainly cases where research is copyrighted with the publishing
journal so full access for all articles would not be possible. Food for
thought.
