It doesn't matter if the overriding method is actually completely new or 
if it only "refines" the original one (i. e. still calls super).

In fact, the term overriding is purely technical. It only means that you 
define a method which is already present in another class of the 
inheritance chain. The actual content is not relevant. It may even 
consist of only calling super (though this wouldn't make sense, of 
course).
