Hey bedd; When a recurrence is completed, MLO takes the original tasks and subtasks and uses them for the new recurrence. It then creates a duplicate of just the top level task of the original recurrence and marks that complete.
The check box you are talking about simply keeps MLO from creating that one top level completed task. The tasks that Jill want to be shown as completed can't be shown that way since they are now used for the newly created future recurrence.
