Statement
Theorem	axc11rv 2301*	Version of axc11r 2400 with a disjoint variable condition on 𝑥 and 𝑦, which is provable, on top of { ax-1 6-- ax-7 2038 }, from ax12v 2214 (contrary to axc11 2462 which seems to require the full ax-12 2213 and ax-13 2404, and to axc11r 2400 which seems to require the full ax-12 2213). (Contributed by BJ, 6-Jul-2021.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 11-Oct-2021.)
⊢ (∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦 → (∀𝑦𝜑 → ∀𝑥𝜑))
Theorem	drsb2 2302	Formula-building lemma for use with the Distinctor Reduction Theorem. Part of Theorem 9.4 of [Megill] p. 448 (p. 16 of preprint). (Contributed by NM, 27-Feb-2005.)
⊢ (∀𝑥 𝑥 = 𝑦 → ([𝑥 / 𝑧]𝜑 ↔ [𝑦 / 𝑧]𝜑))
Theorem	equsalv 2303*	An equivalence related to implicit substitution. Version of equsal 2449 with a disjoint variable condition, which does not require ax-13 2404.

Theorem	sb5 2311*	Alternate definition of substitution when variables are disjoint. Similar to Theorem 6.1 of [Quine] p. 40.

⊢ ([𝑧 / 𝑥][𝑤 / 𝑦]𝜑 ↔ ∃𝑥∃𝑦((𝑥 = 𝑧 ∧ 𝑦 = 𝑤) ∧ 𝜑))
Theorem	dfsb7 2314*	An alternate definition of proper substitution df-sb 2097. 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 2311, 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 2742. Theorem sb7h 2558 provides a version where 𝜑 and 𝑦 don't have to be distinct. (Contributed by NM, 28-Jan-2004.) Revise df-sb 2097. (Revised by BJ, 25-Dec-2020.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 3-Sep-2023.)

⊢ Ⅎ𝑥𝜑    &   ⊢ (𝜑 → (𝜓 → ∀𝑥𝜓))    ⇒   ⊢ (𝜑 → Ⅎ𝑥𝜓)
Theorem	nf5di 2320	Since the converse holds by a1i 11, this inference shows that we can represent a not-free hypothesis with either Ⅎ𝑥𝜑 (inference form) or (𝜑 → Ⅎ𝑥𝜑) (deduction form). (Contributed by NM, 17-Aug-2018.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 10-Jul-2019.)

Theorem	cleljustALT2 2397*	Alternate proof of cleljust 2152. Compared with cleljustALT 2396, it uses nfv 1944 followed by equsexv 2304 instead of ax-5 1940 followed by equsexhv 2327, so it uses the idiom Ⅎ𝑥𝜑 instead of 𝜑 → ∀𝑥𝜑 to express nonfreeness.

Theorem	axc11r 2400	Same as axc11 2462 but with reversed antecedent. Note the use of ax-12 2213 (and not merely ax12v 2214 as in axc11rv 2301). This theorem is mostly used to eliminate conditions requiring set variables be distinct (cf. cbvaev 2085 and aecom 2459, for example) in proofs. In practice, theorems beyond elementary set theory do not really benefit from such eliminations. As of 2024, it is used in conjunction with ax-13 2404 only, and like that, it should be applied only in niches where indispensable. (Contributed by NM, 25-Jul-2015.)
