Normalization as a distributive law
Normalization is a candidate distributive law between the maybe monad and the distribution monad. It forms an almost distributive law, but it is not a distributive law.

Normalization in partial Markov categories
Normalizations exist in any partial Markov category and they follow from conditionals. They are only almost surely unique; and almost surely idempotent. The renormalization formula can be proven in any partial Markov category.
