For a quasipoint B\mathfrak BB in the closed-subspace lattice of a complex Hilbert space, containing a finite-dimensional subspace is equivalent to being generated by a unique line VVV:

B={U:V⊆U},dim⁡V=1.\mathfrak B=\{U:V\subseteq U\},\qquad\dim V=1.B={U:V⊆U},dimV=1.

Containing no finite-dimensional subspace is equivalent to containing every subspace of finite codimension. Lines are intrinsic subspaces, independent of a choice of nonzero vector.

What the Lean code literally says, in plain math · gpt-6.1-sol

Let HHH be a complete complex inner product space, and let BBB be a quasipoint of its closed complex-linear subspaces: BBB is a nonempty family excluding the zero subspace, every pair of its members contains a common member of BBB, and it is maximal under inclusion among families with these properties. Both of the following equivalences hold. First, BBB contains a finite-dimensional closed subspace if and only if there exists exactly one closed subspace VVV whose complex dimension, expressed as module rank, is 111 and for which

B={W⊆H:W is a closed complex-linear subspace and V⊆W}.B=\{W\subseteq H:W\text{ is a closed complex-linear subspace and }V\subseteq W\}.B={W⊆H:W is a closed complex-linear subspace and V⊆W}.

Any finite-dimensional member witnessing the left side is necessarily nonzero because BBB excludes zero. Second, BBB contains no finite-dimensional closed subspace if and only if every closed subspace WWW whose orthogonal complement W⊥W^\perpW⊥ is finite-dimensional belongs to BBB. This quantification includes W=0W=0W=0 whenever HHH is finite-dimensional.
