A threshold adjustment within a Pascalian system therefore fails to satisfy the completeness requirement because it substitutes a degree-of-belief measure for a genuinely distinct evidential concept.

Pascalian system(as used in philosophy of belief and decision-making): A framework for making decisions based on ideas developed by philosopher Blaise Pascal, who argued we should weigh the potential rewards and punishments of our choices (like believing in God) by their probability and importance.
completeness requirement(as used in formal logic and systems analysis): A rule stating that a system must be able to handle and evaluate every possible case or scenario it claims to address—nothing should fall through the cracks.
degree-of-belief measure(as used in probability and epistemology): A numerical way of expressing how confident you are that something is true, usually on a scale from 0 (definitely false) to 1 (definitely true).
evidential concept(as used in epistemology (the study of knowledge)): An idea about what counts as proof or reason to believe something; a way of thinking about evidence itself.
