Feb 14, 2020 at 8:22 comment added Jochen Wengenroth I don't understand what you mean by $X$ is considered with the colimit topology: Only $Y=\bigcup_n X_n$ has a colimit topology and (as Yemon mentions) $Y$ is hardly ever equal to $X$. And I don't see how density of $Y$ in $(X,\|\cdot\|)$ should help -- this does not mean that $X$ is a completion of $Y$ (which need not be complete but easily can be, e.g., is all $X_n$ are closed subspaces of $X$ or if all $X_n$ are reflexive).

Feb 13, 2020 at 22:00 comment added ABIM Yes, I oversimplified things. Dense and also in the category LCS (with continuous linear maps as morphisms).

Feb 13, 2020 at 21:59 comment added Yemon Choi Also, colimit in what category?
Feb 13, 2020 at 21:58 comment added Yemon Choi Do you mean that $\bigcup_n X_n$ is dense in $X$ or equal to $X$? I think the latter scenario is ruled out (assuming the $X_n$ are strictly increasing) by a Baire category argument
