Apr 14, 2018 at 8:37 comment added Philippe Gaucher @MahdiMajidi-Zolbanin I wrote my comment before reading the answer. It is the paragraph "Why might you want the disjointness condition?" about well-defined domain and codomain functions.
Apr 13, 2018 at 20:49 comment added Mahdi Majidi-Zolbanin @PhilippeGaucher how does that work in the example in my question?
Apr 13, 2018 at 8:35 comment added Philippe Gaucher At least for small categories (I don't want to run into size issues), there is a well-defined set map called "source of a morphism". So $\mathrm{Id}_X=\mathrm{Id}_Y$ implies $X=Y$ and of course $X=Y$ implies $\mathrm{Id}_X=\mathrm{Id}_Y$...
Apr 12, 2018 at 20:15 comment added Mahdi Majidi-Zolbanin @Qfwfq Yes, $G$ instead of $\operatorname{End}(G)$ would work, too.

Apr 12, 2018 at 19:52 comment added Qfwfq Why $\mathrm{End}(G)$ and not just $G$?
