Topic: Unknown identifier, but works elsewhere

Aloha,
For some reason, I'm getting a mysterious 'unknown identifier' error.

rcases h with ⟨p₁, p₂, p₃, l₁, l₂, l₃, hr⟩,
rcases hr with ⟨h₁₂, h₁₃, h₂₁, h₂₂, h₂₃, h₃₁, h₃₂, h₃₃⟩,
have hl₃l₁: l₃ ≠ l₁,
from distinct_lines h₂₃ h₂₁,
let q := mk_point hl₃l₁,
have hq: q ∈ l₃ ∧ q ∈ l₁, from mk_point_ax hl₃1₁, --ERROR here: unknown identifier 'hl₃1₁'
end
The error message is unknown identifier 'hl₃1₁'
Mysteriously, the error-producing line, mutatis muntandis, works if I do

sorry
end,
Pardon me in advance for what is likely a silly oversight. :heart:

Note the difference: hl₃1₁
and hl₃l₁
