  1. I thought it worthwhile to add the view of monoids as strict monoidal categories. This seems missing here.

    A question on language; isn’t it confusing in a natively homotopy-theoretic context to give unadorned terms like “monoid” a default interpretation that is effectively “… object in Set” rather than “… object in ∞Gpd\infty\! Gpd”?

    I suppose one might argue that the implicit infinity-category convention should extend to writing “monoid” for A ∞A_\infty-space, but I haven’t heard anyone suggest it before.

    (note that #6 is meant to be about the HoTT topic page on “Monoid”)

  9. added section about the finite product/sums in a monoid
