-## Naming conventions
-
-One of the key strategies to make our library easy to navigate is our naming
-convention. We strive for a direct correspondence between a construction's name
-and its type. Take, for instance, the proof that the successor function on
-integers is an equivalence. It has the type `is-equiv succ-ℤ`, so we name it
-`is-equiv-succ-ℤ`. Note how we prefer lowercase and use hyphens to separate
-words.
-
-We also reflect the type of hypotheses used in the construction within the name.
-However, the crux of a name primarily describes the type of the constructed
-term; descriptions of the hypotheses follow this. For instance,
-`is-equiv-is-contr-map` is a function of type `is-contr-map f → is-equiv f`,
-where `f` is a given function. Notice how the term `is-equiv-is-contr-map H`
-places the descriptor `is-contr-map` right next to the variable `H` it refers
-to.
-
-While abbreviations might seem like a good way to shorten names, we use them
-sparingly. They might save a couple of keystrokes for the author, but in the
-grand scheme of things, they will likely compromise readability and
-maintainability, especially for newcomers and maintainers. We aim for clarity,
-not brevity.
-
-Here is a list of our naming conventions:
-
-- Names are unique; we steer clear of namespace overloading.
-
-- Names should accurately convey the concept of its construction.
-
-- We use US English spelling of words in names.
-
-- Important concepts can be capitalized. Usually, these are categories like
-  `Prop`, `Set`, `Semigroup`, `Monoid`, `Group`, `Preorder`, `Poset`,
-  `Precategory`, `Category`, `Directed-Graph`, `Undirected-Graph`, and so on.
-
-- As a general rule of thumb, names should start out with an all lowercase
-  portion with words separated by hyphens, and may have a capitalized portion at
-  the end that describes which larger mathematical framework the definition
-  takes place in -- for instance, if it is constructed internally to a certain
-  subuniverse or category of mathematical objects.
-
-- The start of a name describes the object that is being constructed. For some
-  theorems, the latter part of a name describes the hypotheses.
-
-- Names never reference variables.
-
-- We use Unicode symbols sparingly and only when they align with established
-  mathematical practice.
-
-- Just as we do with abbreviations, we use special symbols sparingly in names.
-
-- If a symbol is not available, we describe the concept concisely in words.
-
-- We prioritize the readability of the code and avoid subtly different
-  variations of the same symbol. An important exception is the use of the
-  [full width equals sign](https://codepoints.net/U ff1d) for the identity type,
-  as the standard equals sign is a reserved symbol in Agda.

 - Using the projection functions `pr1` and `pr2`, particularly their

   constructions contain a lot of projections throughout their definition, the
   projections reveal little of what is going on in that part of the projections.
   We therefore prefer naming the projections. When a type of the form `Σ A B` is
   given a name, naming its projections too can enhance readability and will
   provide more informative responses when jumping to the definition.
   Furthermore, it makes it easier to change the definition later on.
 
 - The use of `where` blocks in definitions is perfectly fine but keeping them
   short and specific to the definition of the current object is beneficial. Note
