Description

There are a lot of getAs methods, like on nbt, or gson-related things. These should be filtered out, and the remaining text should be checked against java keywords so we don't end up with _long and _int2 vars which currently exist.

Research direction

Start by locating the "as" local name suggester and trace how getAs methods are turned into candidate names. Check the existing handling that produces _long and _int2, then define completion as filtering those methods and avoiding Java-keyword-derived names. No test file or source path is identified in the issue.
