Role-playing: the classic example is surely <em>The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism</em>. I must be one of the elect...mustn't I? So I better try harder...

When reading "Partial completion" all I could think of is how a partially full restaurant is more appealing than an empty one. I would prefer to "use" a restaurant which had been already "started" by others, but not so used that it was too full. Not at all an example of what you are after, sorry. Will try harder!
