Ah I see now. Actually 2 is that AX=O only has the <em>trivial</em> solution. An old textbook I have also lists two more after 4 and before 5:

A is expressible as a product of elementary matrices, and
AX=B is consistent for every n by 1 matrix B.

In fact, that theorem can also be extended to at least 17 parts after you include things about linear transformations, spanning, basis, and rank/nullity. Pretty cool.
