> For the mathematicians that created Computation Science, the only interesting solutions are complete solutions to general questions

Except that's not really true, which is the whole point of the finer computational classes. If many instances are far from the worst case, that tells you something interesting about the class, which is why we have things like parameterised complexity. People who think that the theory is only interested in the general case of the broad classes you learn as an undergrad are just not sufficiently familiar with the theory.
