I don't understand what you mean by "replacing the intersection of cardinalities with an if statement", but if it's a change of the proof that removes dependency on ax-ac2, this is of course welcome. You can:
* copy mreexexd to mreexexdOLD, with comment "Obsolete proof of ~ mreexexd . (Proof modification is discouraged.) (New usage is discouraged.)" (and place it right after mreexexd)
* modify the proof of mreexexd as you indicated, and add at the end of its comment: "Revised to remove dependendy on ~ ax-ac2 . (Revised by xxx, 14-May-2021.)"
