Implication Details

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

Proof: All conclusions are trivial except perhaps that the category has an extremal generating set. For that, let SS be a set with one representative of each isomorphism class of objects of the category. Then it is easy to show using the Yoneda Lemma that SS is an extremal generating set.
