Lastly, I think that a learned, thoughtful and sincere collector can determine what is a complete set, and doesn't need a publication or popular opinion as an arbiter. I think two people can have different opinions on what is a complete set, and both can be just as right.

I do, however, point out that a reasonable definition of a complete set should always be based on logic and not convenience or ownership. An answer of logic is "The Graziano was not issued to the public like the rest of the cards, so it should not be part of the complete set." An of convenience is "The Leaf set should be complete without the Graziano, because there's no way I can afford the card."
