Description

this has always been a problem:

gremlin> :> values()
==>keys
==>values

but now after latest groovy upgrade in 3.6.3 we also get:

gremlin> :> values("a")
No signature of method: org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.structure.Column$2.call() is applicable for argument types: (String) values: [a]
Possible solutions: wait(), name(), any(), wait(long), tap(groovy.lang.Closure), each(groovy.lang.Closure)
Type ':help' or ':h' for help.
Display stack trace? [yN]

Recommended workaround would be to prefer use of the explicit __ or Column when there is potential for naming conflicts when using Groovy.
