then reconsider B1 = B as finite Subset-Family of T ;
union (Components B1) = the carrier of T by Th19;
then consider X being set such that
A2: X in Components B1 and
A3: not X is finite by A1, FINSET_1:25;
reconsider X = X as infinite set by A3;
consider x being set such that
A4: x in X by XBOOLE_0:def 1;
consider y being set such that
A5: y in X and
A6: x <> y by A4, Th4;
reconsider x1 = x, y1 = y as Element of T by A2, A4, A5;
consider Y being Subset of T such that
A7: Y is open and
A8: ( ( x1 in Y & not y1 in Y ) or ( y1 in Y & not x1 in Y ) ) by A1, A6, T_0TOPSP:def 7;
now
per cases ( ( x in Y & not y in Y ) or ( y in Y & not x in Y ) ) by A8;
