It is sets of nodes and sets of paths which are missing, not merely individual nodes or paths. And which paths are be missing cannot be determined without a list of those paths which are included.
On does not have set of nodes being a complete path in a Complete Infinite Binary Tree until the root node is in the set and for each node in the set one and only one of its child nodes is also in the set.
Thus only infinite sets of nodes can represent (complete) paths in a Complete Infinite Binary Tree. Any finite set of nodes in a Complete Infinite Binary Tree either does not all lie in any one path or all lies in uncountably many paths, as many as in the whole tree. --
