Honey blocks don't have a full block hitbox, so this is likely intended.

Soul sand doesn't have a full hitbox either, but it can still support blocks on top. Since honey blocks render as a full cube this is without a doubt a bug.

A full list of blocks which can be attached to the sides of slime blocks, but not honey blocks (please include in description):

Ladders
Vines
Glow Lichen
Sculk Vein
Torch, Redstone Torch, Soul Torch
Buttons
Lever
Tripwire Hook
Bell
Coral Fans
Amethyst Cluster/Buds

Vines can exist if the main vine "plant" is supported further up, but the topmost vine of a plant cannot be supported by a honey block.

Solution, remove the ability to place all those things on slime so you all dont get confused.

muzikbike 2022-05-07T19:08:06Z

...which is a TERRIBLE idea, introduces an inconsistency for no reason, and bars players from creating things they previously could that weren't a problem in that state.
