Description
The example category, Max, is a preorder. The resulting category is skeletal; there is at most one arrow between any two objects. This is not bad, but most categories will be richer than this, and the example should say so.

Research direction
Locate the “Category” example in the project’s glossary content and read its surrounding explanation. Update the example to note that Max is a preorder or partial order and that richer categories can contain more arrows. Done means the example clearly communicates this limitation without changing its core definition.
