Depth Strider and Dolphin's Grace causing fish and dolphins to despawn

When wearing boots with Depth Strider III and receiving Dolphin's Grace, all fish and dolphins despawn from loaded chunks when Dolphin's Grace ends.

 

To recreate (best with two players):

Spawn a bunch of dolphins and tropicla fish in an area:

/summon minecraft:tropical_fish ~ ~ ~
/summon minecraft:dolphin ~ ~ ~

Have the first player wait near the fish and dolphins, and have the second player that is wearing the boots with Depth Strider enter "swimming" mode (sprint key).  One or more of the dolphins will follow them giving them the Dolphin's Grace effect.  Keep swimming without running into anything, and when the Dolphin's Grace effect ends, all the fish and dolphins will despawn.

Works as Intended. Fish and dolphins will instantly despawn when a non spectator player is at least 128 blocks away.

Edited my original description to reflect that it doesn't matter what gamemode the observing player is using, they despawn even if the observer is in survival mode.

Does this still happen in Minecraft 1.13.1?
