indeed, but I want to have addition in the ordered completion of e.g. the real numbers. The additive AbelianMonoid is well defined except the case inf - inf. What would be the appropriate category for this?
Or just do

if R has AbelianMonoid then
   +:(%,%) -> %

like in MatrixCategory?
Or define "OneSidedCompletion" with either -inf or inf which would suffice
for maxplus and minplus.
