* by re-writing to CardinalityVerifier or ItemVerifier or both, by calling
* TypeChecker::applyFunctionConversion().
*
*
* One approach could be to skip instantiating TreatAs and simply let the
* return value of TypeChecker::applyFunctionConversion() be inserted into
* the AST, but that wouldn't handle type checking the context item
* properly, which depends on that the StaticContext have been set by the
* parent Expression.
