This is bullshit.  "*le* remei" can't refer to a set no matter what x1

Now that's interesting. "remei" means "is a pair", so "le remei" means "that which I call a pair". I don't see a problem here. The "individuality" of "le" is, I think, in the eye of the observer - by using "le remei", I convey that I am thinking of the pair as an entity , which is surely what is called for here.
