Yep. That's exactly the issue. I had thought the reference to casewise deletion in the help for "complete.obs" was referring solely to the two variables involved, not the entire dataset.
The documentation might be a little clearer on this point for those just starting out in statistics, although I suppose it's only an issue if you're working with correlation matrices, which might imply you're really *not* just starting out in statistics, and should know better.
