 Categorically, this says that the exponential from a coproduct of two
 objects is isomorphic to a product of two exponentials. In Haskell, this

+algebraic identity has a very practical interpretation. It tells us
 that a function from a sum of two types is equivalent to a pair of
 functions from individual types. This is just the case analysis that we
 use when defining functions on sums. Instead of writing one function
