Let X be a Banach space with the following properties.

(1) X embeds into every inf. dim. closed subspace.

(2) If T is a vector topology then T is a strictly weaker Hausdorff topology on a subspace

of X if and only if it is the subspace topology of a strictly weaker Hausdorff topology on X.

Question 1: Does (1) follow from (2)?

Question 2: If X is Reflexive, must it be a separable Hilbert space?
