Attempting to create a frosted ice block using a command such as /setblock will create a block that cannot melt naturally. I don't know if this is supposed to happen, but I can't seem to find any way to make it melt without using external command blocks.

It will not melt regardless of light level. I assume this is because frosted ice is meant to melt with age and not with light level, but when created using setblock, it cannot age properly for some reason.
I was testing this out again on 1.14.3 to try and get footage of it to add to this post, but I found that it is now suddenly working properly. I cannot tell if the problem has been fixed for sure, I haven't changed versions. It may just be being inconsistent.
Couldn't reproduce in 1.14.4. However, frosted ice placed using /setblock will begin aging significantly later than frosted ice made by using Frost Walker enchanted boots.
