OP’s link in comments to us.metamath.org/ileuni/ordtriexmid.html confirms he’s using the Powell definition of ordinal as “hereditarily transitive set”, which under a mild core of set theory matches what you take here. // A very slight rephrasing perhaps makes the countermodel simpler to follow: OP’s “not-not trichotomy” implies “for any down-closed subsets $X,Y \subseteq \omega$, not-not ($X \subseteq Y$ or $Y \subseteq X$)”; then your model is a counterexample to the latter, with $X, Y$ just as subsets of $\omega$ (so we never need to view them as ordinals in the topos). | |
