Is there a particular reason why there is no \min in bigop.v or order.v (just a reserved notation)?

I guess it is hard to pick the neutral element?

Not for nat.

For nat there is no neutral element, right?

what would it be?

Indeed. There would be an absorbing one. Still, \min could be useful for non-empty sets/lists.

Yes I guess that's why the notation is reserved, so users can instantiate it if they have a bound

I see. Thanks.

For order.v tho, it should be avaiable when the lattice has top

If it is not, I guess that's a todo
