The bug
So I was seeing the new particle fix using the campfire smoke and saw when the particles fade out that they make the other particles seethrough as well.
This also affects block breaking particles of transparent blocks (e.g. stained glasses); see also MC-195074. This probably applies to other particles as well.
To reproduce
Place a repeating command block with the following command:
/particle minecraft:campfire_signal_smoke ~ ~1 ~Video

Attached the screenshot from MC-162717 to show that the smoke particles also make other kinds of particles transparent.
Thank you for your report!

Can confirm. Can be reproduced in survival as well by blocking campfire smoke with a block. I don't think other particles are affected as well.
