I think we answer this question in the next sentence:

<quote>
These functions are not available directly to users, and there is no
requirement that implementations should actually provide these functions. For
this reason, no namespace is associated with the op prefix.
</quote>

These operators are not designed as a library for higher order functions.  If
we wanted to do that, more work is needed. Implementations can provide their
own function libraries for this purpose.
