Theorem frege126d

Description: If F is a function, A is the successor of X , and B follows X in the transitive closure of F , then (for distinct A and B ) either A follows B or B follows A in the transitive closure of F . Similar to Proposition 126 of Frege1879 p. 81. Compare with frege126 . (Contributed by RP, 16-Jul-2020)
