Two objectives.  One is to provide inheritance to 2GOs, so that you can declare a type of object without creating the particular object.  The other is to provide inheritance to other 2GCs, so that you may have objects of a general type, but some special-case objects that are like the general type but different.

You can create a grid object class, then a gnome class that inherits from that, then a sheep gnome class that inherits from that, then actual individual sheep gnomes.
