> Today, if a datasource already has a column called `_metadata`, queries cannot access the file-source metadata column that normally carries that name. We can address this conflict with two changes to metadata column handling:
>  # Automatically rename any metadata column whose name conflicts with a data schema column
>  # Add a facility to reliably find metadata columns by their original/logical name, even if they were renamed.
