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.

Conjunction of the two open implications gives the conjectured characterization: if both obligatory_implies_two_colorable and two_colorable_implies_obligatory hold, then the characterization conjectured in erdos_593 (IsObligatory F ↔ F.IsTwoColorable) follows by elementary Iff manipulation.
