We discuss the formal relationship between the absence of global symmetries and completeness, both in effective field theory and in quantum gravity. In effective field theory, we must broaden our notion of symmetry to include non-invertible topological operators. However, in gravity, the story is simplified as the result of charged gravitational solitons.
