They are applied to synthesized arguments, in
the same way methods with context parameters are applied. For instance:
```scala
given ec: ExecutionContext = ...
given ec: ExecutionContext = ...

def f(x: Int): ExecutionContext ?=> Int = ...
def f(x: Int): ExecutionContext ?=> Int = ...

// could be written as follows with the type alias from above
// def f(x: Int): Executable[Int] = ...
// could be written as follows with the type alias from above
// def f(x: Int): Executable[Int] = ...

f(2)(using ec) // explicit argument
f(2) // argument is inferred
f(2)(using ec) // explicit argument
f(2) // argument is inferred
```
Conversely, if the expected type of an expression `E` is a context function type
`(T_1, ..., T_n) ?=> U` and `E` is not already an
context function literal, `E` is converted to a context function literal by rewriting it to
```scala
(x_1: T1, ..., x_n: Tn) ?=> E
(x_1: T1, ..., x_n: Tn) ?=> E
```
where the names `x_1`, ..., `x_n` are arbitrary. This expansion is performed
before the expression `E` is typechecked, which means that `x_1`, ..., `x_n`

The idea is to define classes for `Table` and `Row` that allow the
addition of elements via `add`:
```scala
class Table:
val rows = new ArrayBuffer[Row]
def add(r: Row): Unit = rows += r
override def toString = rows.mkString("Table(", ", ", ")")
class Table:
val rows = new ArrayBuffer[Row]
def add(r: Row): Unit = rows += r
override def toString = rows.mkString("Table(", ", ", ")")

class Row:
val cells = new ArrayBuffer[Cell]
def add(c: Cell): Unit = cells += c
override def toString = cells.mkString("Row(", ", ", ")")
class Row:
val cells = new ArrayBuffer[Cell]
def add(c: Cell): Unit = cells += c
override def toString = cells.mkString("Row(", ", ", ")")

case class Cell(elem: String)
case class Cell(elem: String)
```
Then, the `table`, `row` and `cell` constructor methods can be defined
with context function types as parameters to avoid the plumbing boilerplate
that would otherwise be necessary.
```scala
def table(init: Table ?=> Unit) =
given t: Table = Table()
init
t

def row(init: Row ?=> Unit)(using t: Table) =
given r: Row = Row()
init
t.add(r)

def cell(str: String)(using r: Row) =
r.add(new Cell(str))
def table(init: Table ?=> Unit) =
given t: Table = Table()
init
t

def row(init: Row ?=> Unit)(using t: Table) =
given r: Row = Row()
init
t.add(r)

def cell(str: String)(using r: Row) =
r.add(new Cell(str))
```
With that setup, the table construction code above compiles and expands to:
```scala
table { ($t: Table) ?=>

row { ($r: Row) ?=>
cell("top left")(using $r)
cell("top right")(using $r)
}(using $t)

row { ($r: Row) ?=>
cell("bottom left")(using $r)
cell("bottom right")(using $r)
}(using $t)
}
table { ($t: Table) ?=>

row { ($r: Row) ?=>
cell("top left")(using $r)
cell("top right")(using $r)
}(using $t)

row { ($r: Row) ?=>
cell("bottom left")(using $r)
cell("bottom right")(using $r)
}(using $t)
}
```
