Topic: (slight) terminological inconsistency in mem_Union, … ?
Antoine Chambert-Loir (Nov 16 2021 at 13:56):
I was adapting for bUniona lemma already done for Union.
At one point, I noticed that set.mem_Union, set.mem_sUnion are propositions of the form iff.
On the other hand, the corresponding lemma for bUnionis (rightly) called set.mem_bUnion_iff, while set.mem_bUnion proves that something belongs to a bUnion.
Is there an inconsistency here ? Or what do I miss ?

Unfortunately the naming convention is not quite uniform. If you want more shivers down your spine, compare set lemmas with their finset counterparts.

I wouldn't mind iff-ification of these, or some way to make the naming consistent -- this particular difference has tripped me up before.
