Just slightly expanding the comment of Emil Jeřábek: on one hand, in ZFC we can define some objects we call ordinals and prove transfinite induction of each of them. This is not what we mean by the or …

Why is an internal proof of consistency satisfactory for some systems?
The original context of Gödel's Theorem was slightly different. Famously, Hilbert had asked for a purely combinatorial proof of consistency for strong set theories. Notice that this seems like a very …

End Extension models of $I\Delta_0$
Actually it's not even true that any model of $I\Delta_0$ admits an end extension to a model of this theory.
Even worse, we don't know whether such an end extension exists even if you allow the small …
