this exploit can be use as he manual engine for train alternatively to the steam engine, they don't need golden rail for some section to be united however it's harder to drive, im usure but is't that this cart run on the sunflower rule
+ the fact you can't turn inside because your in he boat and the control are inversed, this engine won't work underwater
One reason I wouldn’t consider this a bug is the fact that minecarts are currently the only thing that can transport all other transport vehicles (boats, horses, happy ghasts) without the help of leads - important for a multi-modal transport network that includes rail at all, and can be handy when laggy servers don’t let you really use leads.
