Theorem axext3 2176

Description: A generalization of the Axiom of Extensionality in which x and y need not be distinct. (Contributed by NM, 15-Sep-1993.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 12-Aug-2011.)

Assertion

Ref	Expression
axext3	|- ( A. z ( z e. x <-> z e. y ) -> x = y )

Distinct variable groups:   x, z   y, z

Proof of Theorem axext3

Dummy variable w is distinct from all other variables.
