        The name <code class="computeroutput">prefer</code> denotes a customisation point object. The expression
        <code class="computeroutput">asio::prefer(E, P0, Pn...)</code> for some subexpressions <code class="computeroutput">E</code>
        and <code class="computeroutput">P0</code>, and where <code class="computeroutput">Pn...</code> represents <code class="computeroutput">N</code>
        subexpressions (where <code class="computeroutput">N</code> is 0 or more, and with types <code class="computeroutput">T
        = decay_t&lt;decltype(E)&gt;</code> and <code class="computeroutput">Prop0 = decay_t&lt;decltype(P0)&gt;</code>)
        is expression-equivalent to:
