For a finite set of proofs, that a given statement is not provable by a proof from that set, is provable, possibly by a proof from that set.
Technically true. You could always just evaluate the two statements and there you have your proof, with length exponential in n. I very much doubt the proof could be made shorter than n though, because the statement is equivalent to "you can't find a contradiction in these axioms using less than n steps", the difficulty of which should grow way faster than linearly in n.
