I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other. I suspect Norm is right
that these are a whole lot more obscure than groups and rings and fields and
the other usual suspects. On the other hand, I guess things are arranged so
that a proof about groups doesn't really need to know about magmas and
semigroups? (Sorry if that is naive, I haven't done much with extensible
structures myself). That might point us to a "harmless even if not strictly
necessary" stance.
