Hi,

I was wondering (and couldn’t convince myself entirely), is it valid and
safe to add arbitrary distinct variable constraints to a proven theorem and
consider it a new theorem?

Such arbitrary new statements can’t be easily constructed as DVs are
generally bubbled up automatically and I don’t know of a good way to
introduce arbitrary new ones? Yet it seems safe to consider a statement
with extra constraints as true?

(This is useful in an automated theorem proving setup where theorem
statements are generated as it could allow more statements to be accepted
as valid theorems even if they contain extra DVs)

Thanks!
