The 1901 season had about 87% complete games and this is in the file the game uses for reference. However, that is 1913 CG but only 1094 team wins that season. There were more CG than wins. A couple considerations here is that you are then asking OOTP to value a CG more than trying to win by putting in a PH in the 8th inning. Another consideration is that what is far more important than CG are the distribution of innings between SP and RP. If you have the game go all out to target CG than you will end up with way more innings going to SP than relief pitchers.

The game weighs the IPouts per GS if a given season and the CG rate by default to calculate the SP stamina each season. It is possible to adjust those weights in the engine file and have the game only target CG rate but I advise against doing that.

Consider that a CG is all or nothing too. If you pitch 26 outs that is not a complete game. So you send up putting undo emphasis on a couple of outs at the end of the game for a CG stat when winning is more important.
