Implication Details

Claim: If a category is cocomplete and has a generating set and is locally essentially small and is well-copowered, then it is total.

Proof: Since the category is cocomplete and well-copowered, it is epi-cocomplete (meaning that it has wide pushouts of epimorphisms, even of non-small families of epimorphisms). The result then follows from B. J. Day, Further criteria for totality, Thm. 1.
