If an infinite cluster avoids , the set of first coordinates of its vertices has a least value . Then , viewed in , intersects . Repeated application of part (d1) embeds it in an infinite cluster of meeting , eventually producing an infinite cluster of meeting . Because each enlarged cluster contains , already the first step contradicts the minimality of . Thus such a cluster has probability zero.
