 This suggests you still view completion as a process, and not a state.  
Completion cannot
 be "partly" accomplished.  And the relavant time reference is {wa'leS}.  "As 
of tomorrow,
 I will have changed it again."  As of tomorrow, my act of changing it again 
will be
 accomplished (intentionally).

 At the time indicated by {wa'les} (tomorrow), the action will be completed.  
It need not
 "accomplish" that state at that time, it may be completed today, or it may 
already be
 completed, it doesn't matter.
 
 > {-ta'} does not preclude the action being right now, the {wa'leS} does 
that.
 
 All the {wa'leS} does is indicate that, at that point in time, the action is 
completed.
 The action could occur now, or yesterday, or whenever, so long as it's 
completed by
 {wa'leS}.

 At least we agree on that. >>
