Theorem dfexdc 1489
Description: Defining  E. x ph given decidability. It is common in classical logic to define  E. x ph as  -.  A. x -.  ph but in intuitionistic logic without a decidability condition, that is only an implication not an equivalence, as seen at exalim 1490. (Contributed by Jim Kingdon, 15-Mar-2018.)
