Tale's End could work, because at least you could also counter something with it, most likely, but Repudiate/Replicate is useless most of the rest of the time.
Really? You're framing it that Repudiate//Replicate is the niche corner case card that won't have any other versatility (when it's a discounted Clone or counters a PW ult as its fail-case)? While propping up this card, which is most likely to be at-best a Death Ward if your Lotus plan doesn't come together?
Ult a planeswalker, get it and potentially something else back, activate the walker. Nissa comes to mind.
We aren't that far removed from Kaya's Ghostform. Sure, you can maybe engineer some utility about the second permanent you can bring back. But my point is, "Ult a planeswalker and get it right back supercheap" isn't new ground anymore. It's very-recently-trodden ground.

Oh, look, now Tale's End does it for 1U, too.
