Mode is for storing an eigenvector that has an associated eigenvalue.

HilbertSpace(modes) takes the modes, discards the eigenvalues, and orthonormalises the eigenvectors - useful for then calculating new eigenmodes, such as those of symmetry operators or Wilson loop operators.

I think renaming Mode to Eigenmode and HilbertSpace to Eigenspace will make this intention clearer.
