You can already get these as Data.List.genericLength and
Data.List.genericReplicate
As for changing the prelude ones, this would probably cause a lot of
busywork. Where I work we compile with -Werror and -Wtype-defaults,
so a lot of places might have to get type annotations.

Would it be possible to generalize replicate and length to have type signatures
replicate :: Integral a => a -> b -> [b]
and
length :: (Integral a, Foldable t) => t b -> a
?
There have been a few instances where such a thing would have been useful to me.
Cheers
