I now think the difference b/w radical and incremental innovations lies in their respective domains. Their codomain is the same. In short, radical innovation (e.g. a paradigm shift) is a functor, while incremental innovation (e.g. "normal science") is an endofunctor.

One of the implicit assumptions behind Bob Coecke's approach is that functions compose, i.e. domains and codomains match. This is true for natural processes. In artificial processes discovering/creating matching domains/codomains is a separate task.
