Uniqueness and $(\infty,2)$-Naturality of Yoneda
Abstract: We show that the Yoneda embedding extends to an $(\infty,2)$-natural transformation. Furthermore, as such, it is uniquely determined by its value at the trivial $\infty$-category. We also study the naturality of the Yoneda lemma in its arguments, showing that it is an isomorphism of $(\infty,2)$-natural transformations.
