Theorem euequ 2625
Description: There exists a unique set equal to a given set. Special case of eueqi 3670 proved using only predicate calculus. The proof needs 𝑦 = 𝑧 be free of 𝑥. This is ensured by having 𝑥 and 𝑦 be distinct. Alternately, a distinctor ¬ ∀𝑥𝑥 = 𝑦 could have been used instead. See eueq 3669 and eueqi 3670 for classes. (Contributed by Stefan Allan, 4-Dec-2008.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 8-Sep-2019.) Reduce axiom usage. (Revised by Wolf Lammen, 1-Mar-2023.)
