COMPLIMENT: An expression of esteem, respect, affection, or admiration.
It would depend a great deal upon the exact nature of outcome A to determine what someone might say to express esteem, respect, affection, or admiration for outcome A. It is nearly certain that no matter how unpopular outcome A might be that there will be more than one compliment for that outcome. Hence, to find "the" compliment is likely impossible, depending on the size of the population that actually has an opinion of any kind regarding outcome A.
COMPLEMENT: (of a probalistic outcome) The complement of an event is the set of all outcomes in the sample space that are not included in the outcomes of that event.
The probability of an event plus the probability of the complement of that event is always 1. Hence:
\ =\ 1\ -\ P(A))
