6. Phases with "intrinsic " topological order (41), such as fractional quantum Hall states, have exotic bulk excitations with fractional statistics and are distinct from trivial insulators even in the absence of symmetry.
7. The "topological Mott insulator" (8) has exotic gapless bulk excitations.

10. One may attempt to construct SPT phases of fermion system by first forming bosons as composites out of the fermions, which then form a bosonic SPT state. Not all boson SPTs remain distinct states in an electronic system [see section 2 of (34)], but those that do can all be viewed as topological paramagnets. The only other electronic root state is the original topological band insulator.
