Description

This is motivated by generalizing statements like

theorem Metric.tendsto_nhds' {f : Filter β} {u : β → α} {a : α} :
    Tendsto u f (𝓝 a) ↔ ∀ᶠ ε in 𝓝[>] 0, ∀ᶠ x in f, dist (u x) a < ε`

which correspond to the fact the basis of 𝓝 a made of balls of radius ε would be "naturally indexed by the filter 𝓝[>] 0", whatever that means.

Research direction

Start with Filter.HasBasis and the Metric.tendsto_nhds' example in the issue, then read the linked Zulip discussion for the intended meaning of a basis indexed by a filter. A useful outcome would define whether this generalization is appropriate and specify an agreed API that supports the motivating theorem.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
