Which finite triple systems occur in every triple system of uncountable chromatic number? The claimed characterization: exactly those that, after removing isolated vertices, are linear, have every hyperedge-node of their Levi graph meeting a bridge, and have every Berge cycle even.

Retained formal statement6 of 10

No hyperedges implies chromatic cardinal ≤ 1: A 3-uniform hypergraph with no edges can be properly colored with a single color, so its chromatic cardinal is at most 1. In particular, χ(H)>0\chi(H) > \aleph_0 implies H has at least one hyperedge.
