Would adding an underscore be nicer:

FPT float_distance(FPT lhs, FPT rhs);

And to be clear, this (and the other next functions) *only* apply to floating-point types. (not integer, not decimal, not interval,
or any other type)?

next_distance() is another possible that does not explicitly limit to floating point.
