Theorem equvini 2466
Description: A variable introduction law for equality. Lemma 15 of [Monk2] p. 109, however we do not require 𝑧 to be distinct from 𝑥 and 𝑦. Usage of this theorem is discouraged because it depends on ax-13 2379. See equvinv 2036 for a shorter proof requiring fewer axioms when 𝑧 is required to be distinct from 𝑥 and 𝑦. (Contributed by NM, 10-Jan-1993.) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 25-May-2011.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 16-Sep-2023.) (New usage is discouraged.)
