All this shows a couple of things AFAIC, one- just how much differently we all percieve anything (I have watched three people witness the same event and then listened in amazement when all describe it so differently you wonder if they were watching the same event), and two - just how difficult it can sometimes be for us to accurately describe to another what we are hearing -- which is why Octopus' response is right on.
Myself, when I think of "fleshed out" I analogize it to a skeleton or an emaciated person as opposed to someone with a healthy physique with some "meat on their bones" (you know, Twiggy or Calista Flockheart vs. Pamela Anderson). Thus, being fleshed out brings to my mind, filling in the empty areas with a healthy amount of . . . well . . . use yer imagination.
Ah heck with it, I think we shold ask Hannibal Lecter.
