-(** We write the proof in a way that avoids the use of local variable or hypothesis names, using the %\index{tactics!match}%[match] tactic form to do pattern-matching on the goal.  We use unification variables prefixed by question marks in the pattern, and we take advantage of the possibility to mention a unification variable twice in one pattern, to enforce equality between occurrences.  The hint to rewrite with [plus_n_Sm] in a particular direction saves us from having to figure out the right place to apply that theorem, and we also take critical advantage of a new tactic, %\index{tactics!eauto}%[eauto].

-The [crush] tactic uses the tactic [intuition], which, when it runs out of tricks to try using only propositional logic, by default tries the tactic [auto], which we saw in an earlier example.  For now, think of [eauto] as a potentially more expensive version of [auto] that considers more possible proofs; see Chapter 13 for more detail.  The quick summary is that [eauto] considers applying a lemma even when the form of the current goal doesn not uniquely determine the values of all of the lemma's quantified variables.
