Theorem
Let $\family {a_i}_{i \mathop \in I}$ be a family of elements of the non-negative real numbers $\R_{\ge 0}$ indexed by $I$.
Let $\map R i$ be a propositional functions of $i \in I$.
Let $\ds \sup_{\map R i} a_i$ be the indexed supremum on $\family {a_i}$.
Then:
- $\ds \sup_{\map R i} a_i = \sup_{\map R j} a_j$
