When a player with a full inventory uses an empty bottle on a full beehive or bee nest, (if the bottle count is >1) a honey bottle will not be dropped on the ground but instead an empty bottle item from the inventory will simply be removed with nothing happening after.
Steps to Reproduce:
Place down a full beehive/bee nest
/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:beehive[honey_level=5]
Fill the player's inventory will anything other than honey bottles
Leave one slot on the hotbar with >1 glass bottle
Empty beehive/bee nest
Observed Results:
The glass bottle will be consumed, but no honey bottles will be rewarded, or dropped on the ground
Expected Results:
The empty bottle would either not be consumed, or a honey bottle would drop on the ground.

Notes:
Related to other 'creative mode drop' issues:
It is only the case in creative mode, in survival it will be dropped. This is probably intended, since other actions, like for example using a compass on a lodestone also destroys the item in creative mode.
