The term “incomplete” has been used in literature to convey a variety of nuances, from a literal lack of fullness or finality in accounts and works to a metaphorical commentary on human knowledge and existence. In historical and scientific texts, the word often describes processes or ideas that are in flux—illustrated by Nietzsche’s reference to “incomplete creatures” in Germany [1] and Durkheim’s discussion of science as “incomplete” [2, 3]. In philosophical and literary works, “incomplete” marks the provisional state of human understanding or creative endeavor, as seen in John Dewey’s repeated emphasis on the provisional nature of thought ([4], [5]) and in Shelley’s wistful recollection of a work left unfinished [6, 7]. Fiction writers utilize the term to evoke emotional or aesthetic gaps, ranging from Conrad’s portrayal of a character’s tentative planning [8] to the fragmented expressions in Joyce’s minimalist interjections [9, 10]. Overall, across these diverse examples—from factual studies and scholarly debates ([11], [12]) to poetic narratives and philosophical treatises ([13], [14])—“incomplete” serves as a powerful modifier, highlighting the perpetual state of becoming, the limitations of expression, and the beauty of imperfection.
