(** [proof_irrelevance] asserts equality of all proofs of a given formula *)
Definition proof_irrelevance := forall (A:Prop) (a1 a2:A), a1 = a2.
(** Assume that we have booleans with the property that there is at most 2 booleans (which is equivalent to dependent case analysis). Consider the fixpoint of the negation function: it is either true or false by dependent case analysis, but also the opposite by fixpoint. Hence proof-irrelevance.  We then map equality of boolean proofs to proof irrelevance in all propositions. *)
