 Strictly speaking, before we can state the axioms for $k$-morphisms we need all the axioms 
 for $k{-}1$-morphisms.
-So readers who prefer things to be presented in a strictly logical order should read this subsection $n$ times, first imagining that $k=0$, then that $k=1$, and so on until they reach $k=n$.

 The case $n=d$ captures the $n$-categorical nature of bordisms.
 The case $n > 2d$ captures the full symmetric monoidal $n$-category structure.
