Great catch!!

You mean "nfx", I believe. Actually, I left that one unchanged by intent. It's plausible you might want to invoke that directly, or that there's an existing "nfx" macro you want to invoke. In contrast, the "$bracket-apply$" is really only for when you use the brackets (as implied by the name).
