We study natural transformations, minors, and symmetric monoidal decorations of finite directed acyclic networks. For any weakly connected small source category, a natural transformation into a free acyclic path category is determined by one component. If more than one transformation exists, common prefixes and suffixes give a canonical factorization through two constant functors and identify the transformation set with a single set of directed paths. Consequences include boundary rigidity, a decision algorithm, and a fundamental-group obstruction to non-uniqueness. For fusion–embedding…
