I saw this fallacy on the site you gave:
A is based on B fallacy - all penguins are birds, all eagles are birds, therefore all eagles are penguins

Would that be true of this statement:

All atoms have an electric charge, all atoms have a magnetic field, therefore all atoms have an electromagnetic field?
