    I realized I was a little unhappy with the phrasing of the references to type theory at generalized element, so I edited them a bit, and added some sectioning at the same time.

    I have added a pointer to a reference that discusses this. Probably not the most canonical reference for this point, but one which I happened to have within reach.

    I added a new section “In toposes” which explains that generalized elements in a topos are ordinary elements in another topos, thanks to the slice theorem.
