Orientierungssatz
If an applicant wishes to use the appeal to pursue a higher-ranking request which has not been granted, it must be aware of the risk that the board might refuse the application in toto, whereas the first instance had considered a lower-ranking auxiliary request to be grantable (see Reasons 5.3).
