Splash water bottle still act as "water" in the nether

The Bug:

In the Nether, you can still use water bottles to cause damage to blazes etc. They can also be used to put out fires and campfires. This behavior is not consistent with how other forms of water work in the Nether. Normally, water evaporates immediately when used in the Nether, so it would be logical for water bottles to behave the same way.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Put yourself into the Nether with the following command:

    /execute in minecraft:the_nether run tp @s ~ ~ ~
  2. Summon a blaze with the following command:

    /summon minecraft:blaze ~ ~ ~
  3. Get a splash water bottle and throw it at the blaze.
    ❌ The blaze takes damage.

This is WAI. Splash water bottles are meant to put out campfires as per an earlier bug fix and are intended to be used in the Nether. The Splash water bottles also do make evaporative particles.

and are intended to be used in the Nether.

In the same vain that placing water in a cauldron still works in the nether, this is likely WAI for the same reason.
