Description
self.intersection(other) should be a subset of any self_superset.intersection(other_superset).
This will be useful in particular if some pair self_superset, other_superset is known to be disjoint.
This could also provide another test for Point.__eq__: if the parents of the points have an empty intersection, the points must be unequal. (I don't know how useful this is.)
Checking an antichain of self_supersets against an antichain of other_supersets takes quadratic time. But speed ups for chains are possible by convolution/binary search.
