comprehensive list
All items included
A comprehensive list aims to include every item in a category, leaving nothing out.
The term often signals ambition rather than achievement—truly exhaustive lists are rare: We compiled a comprehensive list of vendors, though we may have missed a few.
The phrase can also preempt criticism: This isn't meant to be a comprehensive list.
