For the nested partial unary operation category tower, each one-step forgetful functor is a monadic adjunction right adjoint: it reflects isomorphisms and creates its split coequalizers. The Beck monadicity theorem identifies the first Eilenberg-Moore category with the next category in the tower. A long composite has that same first monad because free extension of nested partial unary operations leaves no new top fixed points. Repeating the comparison forgets one fewer operation at each step. The remaining forgetful functor is not full until no operation remains to forget, giving monadic length m−n.
