Er, but didn't you do that with your meta pages? MAC, MS, MPM, etc. They're all essentially their original pages but with "no exception" in the field they control. I'm not saying for you to create an AAR page (considering it'd be redundant with AR already having DS) but there's not much point of keeping the users in AR considering I doubt any of them are strong enough to absorb concepts. The things is AR is already about absorbing/replicating anything (that's notably the Absorbing Man's official creed), so a meta version would be twice as redundant. While Meta Probability Manipulation, for example, goes far beyond what we usually understand by "probability", thus needed a page of its own for a much more advanced understanding of the concept. Like Meta Summoning, which goes from "summoning something" to "creating any entity from any inner sea of endless possibilities", far more complex and advanced than the original. As for Meta Ability Creation, the creation of power was almost always understood as a limited process, while Hanten suddenly thrown all limitations out the window in a very official and over-the-top fashion, which once again warranted a page of its own.

A "Meta Absorbing Replication" wouldn't meet any of these criteria, it would truly be the exact same thing with just "no exception" at the end, kind of like "the power to absorb and replicate anything (really anything, seriously)". That just wouldn't make for a good page.
