= Increasing union of deductively closed sets

If
$$
T_0\subsetneq T_1\subsetneq T_2\subsetneq\cdots
$$
are deductively closed, then each $T_i$ is consistent and their union is consistent and deductively closed. The union is not finitary. Each conclusion follows from the <finite character of formal proofs>.
