Theorem Suggestion: Discrete Finite Space implies Spectral Space #743

Theorem Suggestion

If a space is:

then it is P75.

Rationale

This theorem would demonstrate that no spaces satisfy the following search:

Proof/References

The result is trivial, as discrete and finite already imply sober and compact, and the whole powerset is the collection of compact open sets, which trivially forms a basis for the topology and is closed under finite intersections.

It can also be deduced from the more powerful statement (Proposition 10 in Melvin Hochster's 1967 thesis "Prime ideal structure in commutative rings" which states) "X is spectral iff it is a projective limit of finite T0 spaces." by observing that all finite discrete spaces are projective limits of finite T0 spaces.

What about Hausdorff zero-dimensional compact sober space implies spectral space?

Also maybe edit the "space" out of "spectral space" to be consistent?
