By part ii every subset of the Baire space of sequences is -Suslin. If , part i would make every such set -Suslin. Therefore
Now suppose . The axiom of choice gives a set of cardinality exactly . If were -Suslin, the Aleph-one-Suslin decomposition into analytic sets would write it as a union of analytic sets. If all those analytic sets were countable, their union would have cardinality at most , so one of them is uncountable. The perfect set property for analytic sets then makes that member, and hence , have cardinality , contradicting
Thus is not -Suslin, and
