In section 6.2, The Apply syntax is introduced before Apply typeclass.

It felt a little bit disorientating to read about an apply syntax just after reading about Semigroupal. Without specifically pointing out that this comes from the yet to be discussed typeclass. What makes it even more confusing is that, as you would agree, apply is easily ambiguous in Scala. So what not initially sure if the apply in apply syntax refers to some syntax that builds upon Scala native apply features.

Would suggest that the normal flow of discussing the typeclass and then the syntax they introduced be kept here as it helps with the pedagogy.
