I don't think any two foods alone will give you a good nutrition. Eat different foods (cook fresh when you can), look for protein here and there and you're probably good. Except vitamin B12, take supplements for that!
Indeed I would expect diversity to matter. I’m a novice here but it seems this whole concept of “nutritional completeness” is actually incomplete in the big scheme of things and more about keeping you alive & avoiding hospitals. That’s a good thing) but I’m assuming it’s not the best end-game because the concept seems to overlook all vitamins & probably other factors as well.
Tofu does has a fairly complete amino acid profile, which is why it combines well with many vegetable proteins. It's only a little short on methionine.
Seeds, nuts, spinach, sweet potato, corn, asparagus, broccoli, chard... And more are all pretty decent sources of methionine.
