For an adjunction F⊣G, applying G to its standard counit presentation gives T2GD⇉TGD→GD, split by the monad units. Reflection therefore makes every counit presentation a coequalizer and gives full faithfulness by descent. Conversely, monad algebra forgetful functor creates split coequalizers makes an existing G-split quotient a coequalizer in the Eilenberg-Moore category. Fullness and faithfulness of the comparison lift its universal factorization back to the original category.
