Moreover, if you consider an ambient space, what should be simply connected if not a subspace? Being a subfield of a field also means to be closed under various operations, and hence could be regarded as not just one property. | |

In your case, though acceptable an answer, I get the feeling that simple-connectedness and being a subspace are two properties. See my comment above. | |
