What output are you wanting?  If all you want is the non-matching lines,
don't ask for context (since the context will include matching lines).

If you want your request to be acted on, please demonstrate with some
sample input and the resulting output you want to accomplish, and then
we can help you figure out if that particular output can already be
generated using existing options.  But your vague request to "print just
the missing set" doesn't tell me what you really want.
