   branch1, branch2, ... , branchr,                    (branches of the principle)
   forall (x1:Ti_1) (x2:Ti_2) ... (xni:Ti_ni),         (induction arguments)
   (HI: I prm1..prmp x1...xni)                         (optional main induction arg)

  HI is not present when the induction principle does not come directly from an
  inductive type (like when it is generated by functional induction for
  example). HI is present otherwise BUT may not appear in the conclusion
  (dependent principle). HI and (f...) cannot be both present.

  Principles taken from functional induction have the final (f...).
