It's a template that defines the function called "Eponymous
Templates":

A template generates code, it cannot be called, only instantiated.
The common syntax is just a shortcut for using it. Otherwise you
would need to write `filter!(a => a > 0).filter([1, -1, 2, 0,
-3])`. Like UFCS, some magic the compiler does for you.
