Let
- 1.
Functoriality. The assignment
defines a functor - 2.
Adjointness. We have a quadruple adjunction
- 3.
Interaction With Groupoids. If
is a groupoid, then we have an isomorphism of categories - 4.
Preservation of Colimits. The functor
of Item 1 preserves colimits. In particular, we have bijections of setsnatural in

Proof of Proposition 9.3.2.2.2.
Item 1: Functoriality
Clear.
Item 2: Adjointness
This is proved in Proposition 9.3.1.1.1.
Item 3: Interaction With Groupoids
Clear.
Item 4: Preservation of Colimits
This follows from Item 2 and
Item 5: Symmetric Strong Monoidality With Respect to Coproducts
Clear.
Item 6: Symmetric Strong Monoidality With Respect to Products
Clear.
