[Solved] Question about EnumProperty

So I've been making blockstate properties with an enum, but ran into trouble with the naming conventions. I followed vanilla code, i.e. all-caps for enum names and then all lowercase for the string values. However, I soon realized that the all-caps naming of the enum was causing the error, so I guess I'm asking as to why... For example, when I was looking through vanilla code to see how they did Enum properties, so in driptsone's case:

public enum DripstoneThickness implements StringRepresentable {
   TIP_MERGE("tip_merge"),
   TIP("tip"),
   FRUSTUM("frustum"),
   MIDDLE("middle"),
   BASE("base");

   private final String name;

   private DripstoneThickness(String p_156018_) {
      this.name = p_156018_;
   }

   public String toString() {
      return this.name;
   }

   public String getSerializedName() {
      return this.name;
   }
}

the enums are named in all capitals, but if I do the same format, it would throw an error. Am I missing something obvious or is there a reason it this? Thanks!

[EDIT] I somehow figured it out, please ignore !
