That's right, I told it to complete something, and it can't.

So the options are:

1. Fail the completion
2. Complete something I didn't ask for (but it's close)
3. Complete correctly what I asked for

I'm saying if 3 is not feasible, then perhaps 2 would make sense
rather than 1. It's at least something.
