Re:What does it mean for a monad to be strong? by throwaway17_17 on Monday August 21, 2023 @07:06PM (#37216546)
I don’t think ‘strength’ requires a Cartesian product. I was under the expression that any tensor product was sufficient, some of which lack Cartesian structure.

You need it to be symmetric if you want strength as such instead of left-strength and right-strength, but otherwise yes, it makes sense to talk about strength relative to any monoidal product.
