Theorem sb7h

Description: This version of dfsb7 does not require that ph and z be distinct. This permits it to be used as a definition for substitution in a formalization that omits the logically redundant axiom ax-5 i.e. that doesn't have the concept of a variable not occurring in a wff. ( dfsb1 is also suitable, but its mixing of free and bound variables is distasteful to some logicians.) Usage of this theorem is discouraged because it depends on ax-13 . (Contributed by NM, 26-Jul-2006) (Proof shortened by Andrew Salmon, 25-May-2011) (New usage is discouraged.)
