| The intension of class extensions |
The intension of a class extension B
is a superset of the intension of the original class A |
 | The intension of a class A is blown up when the class is extended to B |
It is, in general, not possible to characterize the extension of B in relation to the extension of A Often, the extension of A does not overlap with the extension of B |
