As I indicated in my first post there are two kinds of double accusatives
treated in the grammars, 1) personal and impersonal (Eg. above) and
2)Primary and Secondary. The latter I first learned as an object
compliment. It is the type that usually needs something added to make
sense in English. The difference between the two seems to me to be a
matter of English and not inate in the Greek.

Yes and to diagram either type of double accusative requires a line between
the two accusatives slanting back toward the first one. That shows that
one compliments the other. The second also acts a lot like a substantive
in apposition to first accusative.
