The "naked" pushforward pushforward₀ F R of presheaves of R-modules along
F : C ⥤ D (without change of ring) is an additive functor.
The pushforward functor pushforward₀ F R preserves finite limits, computed
section-wise via the evaluation functors.
Restriction of scalars along a morphism of presheaves of rings preserves finite limits, evaluation-by-evaluation.
The full pushforward pushforward φ (which combines pushforward₀ and restriction
of scalars via φ) is additive.
The full pushforward functor pushforward φ on presheaves of modules preserves
finite limits, since both factors do.
Pushforward preserves kernels: the kernel of the pushforward of α is isomorphic
to the pushforward of the kernel of α.
