Open Mapping Theorem proof

Multi tool use
$begingroup$
In my notes on complex analysis we have this version of the Open Mapping Theorem
The image of an open set under a non-constant holomorphic map is open.
The proof begins by stating that it is enough to show that the image of an open disc is open under a non-constant holomorphic map.
I do not understand why this is the case.

Every open set is an union of open discs. If you prove that the image of an open disc is open, then, for every open set $U$ we have
$$U=bigcup_{iin I}D_i$$
$$f(U)=fleft(bigcup_{iin I}D_iright)=bigcup_{iin I}f(D_i)$$
So if each $f(D_i)$ is open, then $f(U)$ is open.

since the open discs form a basis of the topology, every open set can be written as the union of open discs.
So lets assume we have an Open $U$ then $U= bigcup_{iin I} D_i$ for $D_i$ open disks (observe that $I$ is an arbitrary index set!). Now $$f(U)=f(bigcup_{iin I} D_i)=bigcup_{iin I}f(D_i)$$
and so since the righthandside is open, the lefthandside is as well.
Furthermore, since every open disk is open we have that a map $f:mathbb{C} to X$ is open if and only if every open disk gets sent to an open disk.

You can cover any non-empty open set of the plane by open discs. Then any point in the image of this open set will be in the image of such a disc, and therefore will have an open neighborhood included in the image.

"cover by" is not what you need here; in fact you can cover any subset of the plane by open disks...

since the open discs form a basis of the topology, every open set can be written as the union of open discs.
So lets assume we have an Open $U$ then $U= bigcup_{iin I} D_i$ for $D_i$ open disks (observe that $I$ is an arbitrary index set!). Now $$f(U)=f(bigcup_{iin I} D_i)=bigcup_{iin I}f(D_i)$$
and so since the righthandside is open, the lefthandside is as well.
Furthermore, since every open disk is open we have that a map $f:mathbb{C} to X$ is open if and only if every open disk gets sent to an open disk.
