{α : Type u_1} → {r : α → α → Prop} → WellFounded r → (s : Set α) → s.Nonempty → α

A minimal element of a nonempty set in a well-founded order. If you're working with a nonempty linear order, consider defining a ConditionallyCompleteLinearOrderBot instance via WellFoundedLT.conditionallyCompleteLinearOrderBot and using Inf instead.
