The adverbs 'z kretesem' (utterly) and 'na amen' (for good) refer in different ways to the concept of the boundary. The unit 'z kretesem' comments on actions, not the later states. It expresses a subjective opinion of the speaker who estimates the result of the action as a loss. For 'na amen' however, it is primary to comment on states, not on actions. Because it is impossible to know or even only see that something was done 'na amen', this adverb expresses the speaker's opinion, which is not connected with his knowledge but with his subjective estimation independent of the real situation.
