Description
**Situation**
I can't quite follow the text in the ifc concept documentation about predefind type. Here is an excerpt from the documentation:
> "If the object is typed by an [IfcTypeObject](https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/lexical/IfcTypeObject.htm), then the PredefinedType at the [IfcObject](https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/lexical/IfcObject.htm) occurrence shall only be used if the PredefinedType at [IfcTypeObject](https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/lexical/IfcTypeObject.htm) is set to NOTDEFINED."
source: [ifc documentation](https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/concepts/Object_Attributes/Object_Type_Predefined_Type/content.html)
**Issue**
There is no "PredefinedType" at [IfcTypeObject](https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/lexical/IfcTypeObject.htm). The PredefinedType is just defined by [IfcObject](https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4_3/HTML/lexical/IfcObject.htm).
**Thoughts**
Am I right in thinking that this text is not quite correct?
