it is a type, you are right, the point is that it is in fact a morphism of gradd abelian groups, so if one forgets that cohomology is a ring then it is a morphism, but since it is just a collection of natural transformations, which may not be how you want to think about it pedagogically, it is really

The Steenrod squares are just some subgroup of this. (If I remember correctly, they aren't the entire cohomology of E-M space, but a particularly easy subgroup to calculate. Note we restrict to dimensions where n \leq m.) The squares themselves are a basis for this subgroup, and the Adem relations

can be calculated on E-M space, it follows they hold for all manifolds. Maybe someone else knows about this and can sat a little more, especially about why you pick this particular subgroup.

The coaction is jot induced by the product on E but by the unit from S to E. The latter would induce an action since the second variable of hom is covariant.

H^n+i(X). and i will fix this now, but what was meant was that it is not a morphism of rings, it is almost never a ring homomorphism, see the cartan fmla.

so I deduce that cohomology operations need to be morphisms in the category of groups, i.e. group homomorphisms.

Then the Steenrod squares are induced by composing with homotopy classes of maps
