 The definitions presented below tie the categories more closely to the topology
 and avoid combinatorial questions about, for example, the minimal sufficient
 collections of generalized associativity axioms; we prefer maximal sets of axioms to minimal sets.
-For examples of topological origin
+It is easy to show that examples of topological origin
 (e.g.\ categories whose morphisms are maps into spaces or decorated balls), 
-it is easy to show that they
 satisfy our axioms.
 For examples of a more purely algebraic origin, one would typically need the combinatorial
 results that we have avoided here.

 We will refer to elements of $\cl{\cC}(S)_E$ as ``splittable along $E$" or ``transverse to $E$".

 Conversely, one can show that a topological $A_\infty$ $n$-category $\cC$, where the $k$-morphisms
 $\cC(X)$ are trivial (single point) for $k<n$, gives rise to 
 an $\cE\cB_n$-algebra.

 If we apply the homotopy colimit construction of the next subsection to this example, 
 we get an instance of Lurie's topological chiral homology construction.
