Morphology

repleteness = replete (transparent) = replete + ness

The noun is a regular nominalization of the adjective 'replete' with '-ness', yielding 'the state of being replete'.

Etymology

Repleteness comes from Latin parts re- meaning 'again' and plere meaning 'to fill', the same root as plenty, so you can picture a bag filled to the top to remember it means being completely full or well supplied.
