Theorem dfsb7 2268

Description: An alternate definition of proper substitution df-sb 2060. By introducing a dummy variable 𝑦 in the definiens, we are able to eliminate any distinct variable restrictions among the variables 𝑡, 𝑥, and 𝜑 of the definiendum. No distinct variable conflicts arise because 𝑦 effectively insulates 𝑡 from 𝑥. To achieve this, we use a chain of two substitutions in the form of sb5 2262, first 𝑦 for 𝑥 then 𝑡 for 𝑦. Compare Definition 2.1'' of [Quine] p. 17, which is obtained from this theorem by applying df-clab 2703. Theorem sb7h 2519 provides a version where 𝜑 and 𝑦 don't have to be distinct.
