Misleading Enum.values type hint

Describe the bug
Hovering over the values getter currently shows the enum type, but is actually a list of values.

enum MyEnum {
  first,
  second,
}

void main() {
  print(MyEnum.values);
}

Given how code navigation works I assume it's all by design, but just in case it's not.

Please complete the following information:

Dart Code extension: 3.78.0

App: Visual Studio Code
App Host: desktop
Version: mac 1.84.2

Workspace type: Dart (LSP)

Dart (3.3.0-91.0.dev): /Users/dimannich/Desktop/flutter/bin/cache/dart-sdk
Flutter (3.17.0-0.0.pre): /Users/dimannich/Desktop/flutter (No device)

Feels like a bug to me. Code completion shows it as a List, so I don't see why we shouldn't here:

Possibly there's something slightly weird because it's synthetic and navigating will go to the enum itself.
