| Apr 21, 2013 at 1:00 | comment | added | Pete L. Clark | In my (inexpert) opinion, it is indeed mostly of "psychological" use, giving an a priori explanation of why certain contructions that are obvious and intuitive in $R$-Mod can be performed in any abelian category. Since I for one find the basic formalism of abelian categories somewhat tedious, I do appreciate the result for this reason. | |
