That isn't how properties are defined, and existence isn't a (first
order) property.
We place things into ensembles (classes, as opposed to sets) on the
basis of their properties;
we don't read properties off from ensembles. Properties have to come
first, or we would not
be able to classify individuals that we had not encountered before.
