I won't adopt this one either for the same reason.

I'd say it one of these ways.

eng
We have nothing to complain about.
eng
We have no complaints.
eng
We've got nothing to complain about.

Sorry, I overlooked it.

Then the sentence could either be deleted or fixed, which usually leads to merging with the existing ones.

This is an example of a bug in the duplicate-merging script, Horus, that moved the "Tanaka Corpus" tag to a non-Tanaka Corpus sentence.

Duplicates of this sentence have been deleted:
x #318670. (We have nothing to complain of.)

You can see that even though this may be an outdated usage or maybe just not used often, or at all, in modern-day America, it is a phrase that is used in books.
