Let . The normal distribution axiom and necessitation of give . Combining this with propositional reasoning yields the theorem
Indeed, together with supplies both conjuncts of . Necessitate this theorem and apply distribution to obtain
The new Löb axiom at now gives . Finally, necessitation and distribution applied to the tautology give . Composition proves
No positive-introspection instance was used in deriving it. The argument shows why that scheme can be dropped when the Löb scheme is added.
