Locality
Intuitive
Explanations in this section should contain no formulas, but instead colloquial things like you would hear them during a coffee break or at a cocktail party.
Concrete
In this section things should be explained by analogy and with pictures and, if necessary, some formulas.

Q: What does it mean mathematically?
A: This is captured by the theory of sheaves.
