Flying Blue miles expiration date?

Here is what I found in the link below
https://wwws.airfrance.us/informatio...cg-flying-blue
“Overall Extending Activity” is defined as an activity that rewards the Member with XP (Eligible Flights) or any other Earn Activity designated as an Overall Extending Activity in the Flying Blue Communication, and therefore extends the validity of all Miles, such as flights on Transavia that earn Miles and payment with the co-branded credit cards listed in the Flying Blue Communication.

here they say "any" XP is Overall Extending Activity, yet in parenthesis it states, "(Eligible Flights)". Now I'm really confused. Do donations which earn XP extend the expiration of miles or not?
