If obj1 is connected to obj2, then obj1 meets obj2 or obj1 overlaps with obj2.

meets spatially and overlaps spatially are disjoint.

If hole1 is an instance of hole and hole2 is a properPart of hole1, then there exists obj so that hole1 meets obj and hole2 doesn't meet obj.

If obj1 is equal to "the surface of the hole hole", then for all obj2 holds: obj2 overlaps with obj1 if and only if there exists obj3 so that obj3 is a superficial part of "the host of the hole hole" and hole meets obj3 and obj2 overlaps with obj3.
