The author said he is just starting on the book, so he's not claiming it's perfect. And the beauty of github, open source is you can fix them with a pull request. For example, the svg is here: https://github.com/abuseofnotation/category-theory-illustrat...

You are right. (Curiously, the picture of the terminal object is correct, so they didn't just switch them!)

Looks fine to me. What's wrong with it?

Author here. It was backwards, I fixed it when I saw the comment. Feel free to report any other mistakes you see on https://github.com/abuseofnotation/category-theory-illustrat... or email.

Seems you might have fixed it before I saw it! Thanks!
