Since a fish bucket contains water, wouldn't it be a reasonable expectation for this water to be able to be deposited inside of a cauldron like with a regular water bucket?
This is not the case, as attempting to do this will instead place the water source directly against the cauldron.

I'm not using cauldron very much, but isn't it used to brew potions? I'm afraid you can't make fish an ingredient during the brewing procedure which needs a cauldron (correct me if I'm wrong).
So this maybe why players aren't able to pour a bucket of water with fish into a cauldron. Removing water from the bucket results in separation of water and fish, leading to suffocation of the pathetic passive mob which cannot go in the cauldron. Which is something Mojang doesn't want you to bring about.
This is all based on an assumption that fishes cannot be placed in cauldrons. If a feature that fishes capable of going into cauldrons can indeed be added and it doesn't affect anything serious, then forget about my lengthy speech XD
This is probably WAI, unless Mojang decides to make cauldrons function as actual water- IE preventing fall damage, you lose air bubbles in it, etc, as at the moment, fish drown while in cauldrons.

Then where do you suggest the fish should go? XD
