Compactness transfer of finite nonrigidity
= Compactness transfer of finite nonrigidity
If a theory has arbitrarily large finite nonrigid models, expand its language by a unary function $f$, axiomatize that $f$ is an automorphism, require $f$ to move some element, and add sentences demanding at least $n$ elements for every $n$. Every finite fragment has a sufficiently large finite nonrigid model, so compactness supplies an infinite nonrigid model.
