That would make the meaning of mulno more precise, but the
gi'uste seems to give it a much broader meaning, more like
"not lacking any of its constituents", so that for processes
it means all stages have been actualized, but for states 
it would mean that the state is completely actualized,
not a marginal or dubious "incomplete" case. 

If mulno does have the general meaning I read from the gi'uste, 
it would be useful to have lujvo for the more restricted and 
precise meanings, of course. Perhaps {rucmu'o}, process-complete,
for the mo'u sense.
