Can someone please explain the meaning and consequences of the following in layman's terms: "Also notice that the correspondence of owl:allValuesFrom with the universal quantifier means that an owl:allValuesFrom constraint for a property P is trivially satisfied for an individual that has no value for property P at all. To see why this is so, observe that the owl:allValuesFrom constraint demands that all values of P should be of type T, and if no such values exist, the constraint is trivially true." Thanks, --- Stephen
