  According to @{thm th_kept}, thread @{text "th"} has its living status
  and precedence kept along the way of @{text "t"}. The following lemma
  shows that this preserved precedence of @{text "th"} remains as the highest
  along the way of @{text "t"}.

  The proof goes by induction over @{text "t"} using the specialized
  induction rule @{thm ind}, followed by case analysis of each possible 
  operations of PIP. All cases follow the same pattern rendered by the 
  generalized introduction rule @{thm "image_Max_eqI"}. 

  The very essence is to show that precedences, no matter whether they are newly introduced 
  or modified, are always lower than the one held by @{term "th"},
  which by @{thm th_kept} is preserved along the way.
