Mar 13, 2011 at 21:47 comment added D.-C. Cisinski I don't think this is reasonnable: the functor which takes a set $S$ to the contractible groupoid with $S$ as a set of objects is fully faithful, and so is the nerve functor. Therefore, you can count the number of maps $G_2\to G_2$: there are four of them. But you can find countably many maps $N(G_2)\to L$ (i.e. subobjects of the nerve of $G_2$): for instance, consider the skeletons $Sk^n(N(G_2))$, $n\geq 0$. Therefore $N(G_2)$ cannot be isomorphic to $L$.
