I've actually gotta agree with KL/DJ here. I think the actual key is how robust the style is.
Xing yi doesn't strike one as 'complete', especially in the five fists stage. But it does such thorough and adaptable training that it is.
OTOH, I've met stylists from arts that have upwards of 30 forms and 1000's of techniques that suck muchly.
Which is weird. The 'big art' stylists know an awful lot more intellectually, but the 'small art' stylists have their arts so ingrained into their body structure that it just plain works. Different definitions of 'complete', maybe.

Nor let unreason'd tempers rise
Your little hands were never meant
To pluck out one anothers eyes"
