Nuprl Definition : real-closed-interval-lattice

For real numbers ⌜a ≤ b⌝the reals in the closed interval ⌜[a, b]⌝
form distributive lattice with meet ⌜rmin(x;y)⌝ and join ⌜rmax(x;y)⌝.
But they do not form bounded distributive lattice with and b
because we can't prove that ⌜rmin(a;x)⌝ is the same real as ⌜a⌝.
We can only prove that it is an "equivalent" real using the `req` relation
(that we display ⌜y⌝).

Thus the closed interval forms generalized-bounded-distributive-lattice.⋅
