Documentation:

An instance i CAN-BE-ONE-OF a set of classes S iff i is an instance of at most one of the classes. Inside the definition of a class, the form (CAN-BE-ONE-OF ?i (setof C1 C2 ...)) is a convention for stating (subclass-partition class (setof C1 C2 ...)). The two forms are equivalent if each class C1, C2, ... is also defined to be a subclass of C.
