    <p>Whoops, I just realized I've been responding to Carter
      specifically instead of to the list.<br>
      <br>
      I was having some trouble understanding the `unJoin` stuff but I
      read it a few more times and I think I understand it a little
      better now.<br>
      <br>
      In my personal experience the "abstracted version" of `x -> (x,
      x)` I use most often looks like this:<br>
      <br>
      ```<br>
    </p>
    <pre>class SymmetricMonoidal t i p => CartesianMonoidal t i p</pre>
    <pre>  where</pre>
    <pre>  duplicate :: p x (x `t` x)</pre>
    <pre>  discard :: p x i

</pre>
    <pre>-- Laws:</pre>
    <pre>-- duplicate >>> first  discard = fwd lunit</pre>
    <pre>-- duplicate >>> second discard = fwd runit

</pre>
    <pre>-- where</pre>
    <pre>-- lunit :: Monoidal t i p => Iso p x (i `t` x)</pre>
    <pre>-- runit :: Monoidal t i p => Iso p x (x `t` i)</pre>
    <p>```<br>
      <br>
      i.e. adding a suitable duplicate and discard to some symmetric
      monoidal structure gives us a cartesian monoidal structure.<br>
      <br>
      This doesn't really seem to be relevant to what you folks are
      looking for, but it does bring up a question. If some `Bifunctor`
      `t` happens to form a monoidal structure on `->`, wouldn't the
      existence of appropriate `forall a. a -> t a a` and `forall a.
      x -> Unit t` functions pigeonhole it into being "the" cartesian
      monoidal structure on `->` (and thus naturally isomorphic to
      `(,)`)?</p>

              <div>Nice! <br>
                <br>
                That's kind of what I was going for with Carter earlier
                in the day, thanks Matthew. </div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>I think a diagonalization function and functor are
                both very sensible additions to `bifunctors` and
                `Data.Bifunctor`. The theory behind this is sound: The
                diagonalization functor Δ: Hask → Hask^Hask, forms the
                center of the adjoint triple `colim -| Δ -| lim : Hask →
                Hask^Hask`. <br>
                <br>
                Certainly the function `diag :: a → (a,a)` is something
                I've seen written in several libraries, and should be
                included in `Data.Tuple` as a `base` function. The clear
                generalization of this function is `diag ::
                Biapplicative f ⇒ a → f a a`. I'm in favor of both
                existing in their separate capacities. </div>
