Because when a seller does it by mistake, we can not send a ship notice thru

There is a reason sellers might want to set an order to complete.
If you want to delete an old shipping method, you cannot if there is an open
order using that method, even if it was delivered months ago and feedback left.
Obviously you can disable the shipping method, change the name if it conflicts
with another name, set the minimum order value for that shipping method to 9999
if it conflicts with a change in the store minimum order value, but all that
is a faff just because someone hasn't marked an order as complete.

Like you mentioned you can simply choose disable and it will be off and then
in 6-months you can delete it. Plus that way your guaranteed not to potentially
cause issues to the buyer

There's also NO reason to immediately delete a shipping method.
Simply disable it and forget it, delete it later on - it won't be shown in
your shop while disabled.
In short, there is still no reason a seller would set Completed an order

Sure there are work arounds to solve a problem. But if a seller wants to remove
a method, they cannot and are warned it is because there are open orders (even
if they are filed). Hence they can be tempted to complete ones that are already
months old.
There is also the issue that store wide minimum orders take into account any
disabled methods. So if you have multiple redundant methods that are disabled
you still have to edit every one of them if you want to raise the store minimum,
even though they cannot be used by a buyer. Of course, this is not the buyer's
fault (or care), just dodgy programming blocking changes.
It also seems strange that you cannot delete a shipping method while an order
is open, but you can change all the variable parameters in that method.

We don't care.
The discussion is about: why a Seller would be able to set Completed.
Final argument being for me that this doesn't comply with the Completed status:
