Theorem bj-ideqg

Description: Characterization of the classes related by the identity relation when their intersection is a set. Note that the antecedent is more general than either class being a set. (Contributed by NM, 30-Apr-2004) Weaken the antecedent to sethood of the intersection. (Revised by BJ, 24-Dec-2023)

TODO: replace ideqg , or at least prove ideqg from it.
