Erdős problem 593

Erdos Problem #593 asks which finite triple systems occur in every uncountably chromatic triple system. The answer is exactly the class generated from private-vertex expansions of finite bipartite graphs by finite disjoint unions and one-point amalgamations. Problem #1177 on exact spectra is settled alongside it.

The empty hypergraph is trivially obligatory: The 3-uniform hypergraph on PEmpty (no vertices, no edges) appears in every hypergraph via the empty injection.

This degenerate case confirms the definition is well-formed.
