Description: Extend wff definition to
include atomic formulas using the equality
predicate.
(Instead of introducing weq 1491 as an axiomatic statement, as was done in an
older version of this database, we introduce it by "proving" a
special
case of set theory's more general wceq 1343. This lets us avoid overloading
the = connective, thus preventing ambiguity that
would complicate
certain Metamath parsers. However, logically weq 1491 is
considered to be a
primitive syntax, even though here it is artificially "derived"
from
wceq 1343. Note: To see the proof steps of this
syntax proof, type "show
proof weq /all" in the Metamath program.) (Contributed by NM,
