Description: "At most one" picks a variable value, eliminating an existential quantifier. (Contributed by NM, 27-Jan-1997.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 17-Sep-2019.)

Assertion

Ref	Expression
mopick	⊢ ((∃*𝑥𝜑 ∧ ∃𝑥(𝜑 ∧ 𝜓)) → (𝜑 → 𝜓))

Proof of Theorem mopick

Dummy variable 𝑦 is distinct from all other variables.
