Description: Technical trick to permit re-use of some equivalence class lemmas for operation laws. The trick involves ecid , which shows that the coset of the converse membership relation (which is not an equivalence relation) leaves a set unchanged. See also dfcnqs .
Note: This is the last lemma (from which the axioms will be derived) in the construction of real and complex numbers. The construction starts at cnpi . (Contributed by NM, 13-Aug-1995) (New usage is discouraged.)
