Hmm, if terms are explained in an abstract then it becomes too long, the nature of an abstract is to be compact right?
The nature of reading academic papers (for all of us) is one has to chase references. That paper refers to my earlier paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.01759) which elaborates various metagraph morphisms, A textbook-like exposition of these ideas would take a lot more work to put together, but I might do it eventually... it's always a challenge to balance time spent writing stuff up w time spent building stuff...
