Theorem dfsb7 2119

Description: An alternate definition of proper substitution df-sb 1649. By introducing a dummy variable z in the definiens, we are able to eliminate any distinct variable restrictions among the variables x, y, and ph of the definiendum. No distinct variable conflicts arise because z effectively insulates x from y. To achieve this, we use a chain of two substitutions in the form of sb5 2100, first z for x then y for z. Compare Definition 2.1'' of [Quine] p. 17, which is obtained from this theorem by applying df-clab 2340. Theorem sb7h 2121 provides a version where ph and z don't have to be distinct.
