Theorem negsex

Description: Every surreal has a negative. Note that this theorem, addscl , addscom , addsass , addsrid , and sltadd1im are the ordered Abelian group axioms. However, the surreals cannot be said to be an ordered Abelian group because No is a proper class. (Contributed by Scott Fenton, 3-Feb-2025)
