Decent meant cacheable. Your meaning as nemo said... not so decent. cacheable != "clunk is nop" even further cacheable != "clunk can be processed asynchronously". Both concepts are orthogonal. Cathegory theory is useful for thinking about topology and other things. It is not abstract nonsense, only abstract. It *is* noise in this thread though.
