I had exactly the same thought, and actually wrote the mail first with
that monoid. However, what that does *not* give us is the first
frame-preserving update:
(1, a) --> (1, b)
for any a, b. The reason is that just because you own (1, a), does not
mean someone else could not own (unit, b). However, with the proposed
definition, the latter element does not exist.
Kind regards,
Ralf
