I think MO didn't think about a "goal" as we know it from sports. I'm sure 
it's only the abstract idea, because of the added entry "purpose".

And for {teb}, we only have the example of physically filling something, 
like the {tebwI'} at the Do Qe'.  For instance, in german a pen which can 
be refilled with ink is called a "Füller", literally "filler", or {tebwI'}. 
But this is obviously a faux-ami.

KGT p102:
The person taking the order is, in this case, called not a {jabwI'} 
(server) but, instead, a  {tebwI'} (filler), presumably because he or she 
fills a platter ('elpI') with the requested food.

"achieve" {chav} is better.

Quvar.
