+ our List multi method eigenstates (Junction $j)
+
+Returns an unordered list of the values that constitute the junction (formerly
+called C<.values>). It flattens nested junctions of the same type, so
+C<(1|(2|3)).eigenstate> returns an arbitrary permutation of the list
+C<1, 2, 3>.
+
+This method has a rather unusual name by intention; a more common name might
+cause confusion as it could clash with a method name over which autothreading
+is expected.
