this is a Euler diagram, not a Venn diagram.

All Venns are Eulers, not all Eulers are Venns.

Venn diagrams have to show an intersection (overlap) of how all combinations overlap.

If there's a possible combination that could exist, but does not - it's not a Venn.

Something that looks like the Olympic rings is not a Venn diagram because the ring on one end isn't connected to the ring on the other end.
