Confirmed for 1.13.1.
Confirmed for 1.14.1 pre 1
Squids are not being pulled down properly in water over magma blocks in the same manner as other water mobs. All other water mobs, cod, salmon, pufferfish, tropical fish, turtles and dolphins are all pulled down into magma blocks properly. This is still an issue as of 1.15.2 release.
Can confirm for 20w11a

Confirmed. Also, they tend to glitch-fly out of water if you are around 40-50 blocks away from the squid (pictures attached) Once you get closer, they exhibit the glitching up/down movement and barely move as described above.
Also seems to affect squid who are over magma blocks. This would make it directly a squid issue I do believe, as they are affected exactly the same by up or down movement?
