Mar 27, 2017 at 5:57 comment added Arturo Magidin @WłodzimierzHolsztyński: I haven't had much time to think about it, beyond noting that none of my examples would work ;-) But you should perhaps add that at the bottom of your original post, rather than hope people will notice it in a comment to an answer. Just note that the addition is made after my answer, so it doesn't appear like I completely missed the point. :-)
Mar 27, 2017 at 4:09 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński Arturo, you (and everybody) is welcome to provide a separate answer (or answers) about the sharp case.
Mar 27, 2017 at 3:18 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński the world is but CHAOS.
Mar 27, 2017 at 2:11 comment added Arturo Magidin @WłodzimierzHolsztyński: That would certainly get rid of all of my examples, including the proof that an epimorphism must be surjective on the underlying groups (since the maps I construct are not sharp).
Mar 26, 2017 at 8:35 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński I'll call a pearl morphism $\ f: (G\ S)\rightarrow (H\ T)\ $ sharp $\ \Leftarrow:\Rightarrow\ f(S) = T.\ $ Pearls together with sharp pearl morphisms form sharp subcategory of the (full) pearl category. ***** Now, perhaps, the free pearls are projective in the sharp subcategory. (I better finish your answer and check on the sharp subcategory; everybody is welcome to do it and post).
Mar 26, 2017 at 8:20 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński I have read a part of your answer, and I already like it (read upvoted). I need more time to digest all of it. ***** I also somewhat clarified the situation too. I'll present it as a short Answer.

added some comments on what a free object is, and where the proof that free implies projective breaks down.
