Description: Technical lemma to simplify the statement of ipopos . The empty set
is (rather pathologically) a poset under our definitions, since it has
an empty base set ( str0 ) and any relation partially orders an empty
set. (Contributed by Stefan O'Rear, 30-Jan-2015)(Proof shortened by AV, 13-Oct-2024)
