Hi Roger, The unextended aspect of monads is just an expression of the fact that within the monadology, it is not embedded in a space and thus has no measurable size.WE cannot think of monads as we think of atoms in a void. The idea is that we can recover the concept of an external space as a collection of possible locations purely in terms of internal states.
