As others have noted, that's not the purpose of reproducible builds. The problem they solve is "When I download the source code and build it, the binaries are different from the ones provided by the original source, and I have no idea why or whether those differences are incidental, functional, or the result of the source binaries being built from different source code than what is published for them".
It's a long-wished-for safety blanket.
