Trusylver is on a distinguished road
For me it depend on the exercise and on my spotter, the stage of my training program also has an effect. If i am working on heavy sets with a good spotter i will at times go to complete failure followed by forced reps (reps completed after failure with spotter assistance) I don't consider being still able to rack the bar as failure. If I have a spotter with limited strength i will push weights that I am unlikely to fail on.
