I am sorry but I do not see ay relation between the statement I provided from the C++ Standard and the following example and your explanation. The statement is entirely unclear.
For example consider the following program
#include <iostream>
struct A
{
A() = default;
A( const A *a )
{
a->f();
}
virtual void f() const
{
std::cout << "Hello!\n";
}
};
int main()
{
A a1;
A a2( &a1 );
return 0;
}
Here the object a1 is a complete object. Does it mean that the program ill-formed?
