Explain the difference between extensional orientation and intensional orientation. Give an example and discuss why intensional orientation is to be avoided

What will be an ideal response?

Intensional orientation refers to a tendency to view people, objects, and events in terms of how they're talked about or labeled rather than in terms of how they actually exist. Extensional orientation is the opposite: It's a tendency to look first at the actual people, objects, and events and then at the labels—a tendency to be guided by what you see happening rather than by the way something or someone is talked about or labeled.
