[edit] Stronger?

On its face, this axiom is stronger than the axiom of choice. But Jech's book says that, in Bernays-Gödel, it doesn't prove any new statements that only mention sets. If that's true, then maybe "stronger" by itself is a bit confusing. Joeldl 16:42, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

I guess that it depends on whether you think that proper classes matter or not. JRSpriggs 06:35, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
Yes, that's right. Joeldl 12:22, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
