Theorem rals-no-surprise 50585
Description: Demonstrate that there is never a "surprise" when using the allsome quantifier restricted to a class, that is, it is never possible for the consequent to be both always true and always false of the members of 𝐴 that satisfy the antecedent. This is the restricted counterpart of als-no-surprise 50584, and follows from it by dfrals2 50568. Note that this needs no assumption that 𝐴 is nonempty, because allsome requires a member of 𝐴 satisfying 𝜑, and that member would have to satisfy both 𝜓 and ¬ 𝜓. The ordinary restricted "for all" requires no such member and can be vacuously true, as shown in empty-surprise2 50561; that is the point of allsome. (Contributed by David A. Wheeler, 12-Jul-2026.)
