they always insist that Leibnizian monad is not related to the FP monad at all, probably because it's a major point of pride of contemporary scientist to not be related to anything philosophical at all. sure.

still, i'm always wondering. why be so insistent. i mean, leibniz's monads are opaque substances that by itself have no causal relations with the world, but only affect each other/the world through "God". which sounds to me like an exact description of the IO monad
