Correction text:
Hmm... I've been sort of badgering you that this is not "the well-ordering principle." It seems that there has been some discussion on this, and apparently there is than one correct way to use this phrase. (Though, even this should be looked into. I would want to discourage this "other" use of the phrase, but that's just IMHO.)
However, I do recommend mentioning something about this in the article, since I am not the only one who automatically thinks "axiom of choice" when I hear "well-ordering principle." |
