Is there a simple example you could use to illustrate the point? This is interesting.



Let (X,≤) be a partially ordered set. Define a category C whose objects are the elements of X, while for the morphisms there is a single arrow x→y iff x≤y. Those are called posetal categories and are often used as examples



That makes perfect sense and is very helpful. Thank you.
