I think there is a limit the the complexity of stuff a replicator on a starship can make. Only "Industrial" replicators might be capable of making complex stuff.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

There's a long list of stuff the replicators can't produce, mostly involving biological stuff such as vaccines, but there have also been examples of equipment being manufactured rather than replicated. Overall the things are pretty limited in what they can produce.
Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe: Albert Einstein.
