Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the field rename in VS Code using the stated Windows 11, JDK 17, VS Code 1.88, and Java extension 1.29 environment, then trace the rename behavior responsible for the syntax error. Done means a naming conflict between fields produces a warning instead of the reported result.
