Some texture pack makers want transparent lava - semi transparent lava and it's a pain they can't do that currently.
put these in a resource pack and you will have white lava instead of see through lava. I myself wanted purple semi transparent lava but, I can't do that right now.
Making a non transparent block transparent does work with other blocks it just causes an xray glitch but, this is literally doing nothing but showing white
