Sniper duel advancement can be achieved with trident, but the description implies only arrows may be used

The bug

If a skeleton is killed with a trident from more than 50 blocks away, it will grant the sniper duel advancement. The description of Sniper Duel is "Kill a skeleton with an arrow from more than 50 meters".

Not fixed in 18w22a, I'm still able to reproduce this.

How is this not fixed, exactly?

Killed a skeleton from more than 50 blocks away using a trident, and got the advancement.

This is fixed in a very sneaky way [1]: The achievement is now "Kill a Skeleton from more than 50 meters away" - it doesn't say anymore with what weapon...

[1] @unknown: I saw what you did there

... I was already wondering why that string was reappearing. Cheaters!

I guess it's fine, it was just as hard killing that skeleton with a trident as killing it with a bow.
