That's not happening for a similar reason people do not bug-check every single line of every single third-party library in their code. It's a chore that costs valuable time that you can instead spend on getting the actual stuff done. What's really important is that the scientific contribution is 100% correct and solid. For the references, the "good enough" paradigm applies. They mustn't be complete bogus, like the referenced work not existing at all which would indicate that the authors didnt even look at the reference. But minor issues like typos or rare issues with wrong authors can happen.
