Etymology
'comprehensively-addressed' originates from the combination of 'comprehensive' and 'addressed', where 'comprehensive' means 'including all or nearly all elements or aspects of something' and 'addressed' means 'dealt with or discussed'.
'Comprehensive' comes from the Latin word 'comprehensivus', and 'addressed' comes from the Old French 'adresser', which means 'to direct'.
Initially, 'comprehensive' meant 'inclusive', and 'addressed' meant 'directed towards'. Over time, they combined to mean 'thoroughly dealt with'.
