These paragraphs just explain what do we find in each of the different
priorities. They are not worded in a way that they explicitly tell us how
we have to "move" things from one priority to another one, this may be
derived easily from the definition.

So, the paragraph about extra packages says that if we look at the extra
packages, we should find packages that conflict with others with higher
priorities, i.e. we find packages that conflict with required, important,
standard or optional packages, or are only likely to be useful etc.

Thanks.
