Can you clarify where it fails? It's designed to remove stationary noise only, and removes it very well in the guitar and vocals example.

Generally speaking, if you have other sounds that you don't want in the audio, we don't remove them - it's hard to decide from a musical point of view whether you want a certain sound or not. To give an extreme example: a barking dog probably doesn't belong into a Zoom conference, but it may very well belong into your audio recording. Removing such elements would be a creative decision.

The guitar and vocals example has certain clicks in the background that we don't remove - but the stationary noise is gone. Existing professional (and complex) audio restoration tools like iZotope RX don't remove those clicks, either. It's a conservative approach, sure, but in return you can throw any audio at it and it always improves it.
