Signs stuck on walls under water can block pathfinding for bees.
Repro steps
1. Create a 2x2 hole, 3 deep.
2. Put signs on the walls of the middle layer and fill the hole with water.
3. Spawn a bee in the waterfilled block under a sign.
4. Observe that often the bee will get stuck until it suffocates, it's pathfinding stuck at the sign.
Note
I was not able to reproduce this beehaviour without filling the hole with water.
Can confirm in 20w51a.
