It's kind of a bad thing when two words that could be misspelled as
one another fit really well, except for "word geeks."
The existing word, "complement," seems to be a better complement to
the sentence.
Which means that both words are nicely usable as both nouns and verbs,
and about the only thing worse than that, for ambiguity is StUdLy
CAsInG things extensively ;-).
