  Some elementary facts about infinite sets, mostly by Stefan Merz.
  Beware! Because "infinite" merely abbreviates a negation, these
  lemmas may not work well with @{text "blast"}.

  Infinite sets are non-empty, and if we remove some elements from an
  infinite set, the result is still infinite.

  The ``only if'' direction is harder because it requires the
  construction of a sequence of pairwise different elements of an
  infinite set @{text S}. The idea is to construct a sequence of
  non-empty and infinite subsets of @{text S} obtained by successively
  removing elements of @{text S}.
