If spatial extension is an intrinsic determination of corporeality rather than an accidental property, then removing all determinations eliminates body itself rather than yielding an undetermined residue.

Based on where you are in your exploration

accidental property(Lewis accepts that objects robustly have accidental properties, explained through counterparts): A property an object possesses but could have lacked — a property that is not essential to the object's identity.
corporeality(referring to physical objects or bodies): The quality of being physical or having a body; having matter and occupying space.
determinations(Wolff's ontology): The predicates of a thing that must be mutually non-contradictory for the thing to count as intrinsically possible
intrinsic determination(contrasting with accidental properties): A core, essential feature that something must have to be what it is, rather than something that could be added or removed without changing its nature.
spatial extension(describing properties of physical bodies): The idea that something takes up space—it has length, width, and depth. For physical objects, this is a basic feature of what makes them physical.
undetermined residue(as a logical outcome of the argument): What's left over after you strip away all qualities and features—basically nothing identifiable or describable.
