A set of non-empty endsegments has a non-empty intersection. The reason is inclusion-monotony.

 Conclusion not supported by facts.

In two sets A and B which are non-empty both but have an empty intersection, there must be at least two elements a and b which are in one endsegment but not in the other:
a ∈ A but a ∉ B and b ∉ A but b ∈ B.

Same with a set of endsegments.

It can be divided into two sets for both of which the same is required.
