draft/source/declarations.tex

Lines 3615 to 3620 in d237244

An abbreviated function template is equivalent to
a function template\iref{temp.fct}
whose \grammarterm{template-parameter-list} includes
one invented type \grammarterm{template-parameter}
for each generic parameter type placeholder
of the function declaration, in order of appearance.

They are functionally equivalent but not equivalent in the [temp.over.link] sense, as the example immediately below points out:

draft/source/declarations.tex

Lines 3650 to 3651 in d237244

These declarations are functionally equivalent (but not equivalent) to
the following declarations.

We should probably find a better word (or maybe just use "functionally equivalent"?)
