Biomes converting into other biomes when upgrading from old versions

I just created a world in 1.0.0 and all previously generated biomes converted into other biomes, for example, a swamp converted into snowy tundra or desert converted to forest.

Relates to MC-31205

I didn't test yet but I think it will 99.98% certainly happen if I convert an old world from the first version that had prooper biomes - alpha v1.2.0.

Does this happen when you convert the world from 1.0.0 to 1.14.4 as well? Or only in 1.15?

Yes, it does. Adding 1.14.4 to ''Affects Versions''.

Can confirm. This is due to the new biome systems along the versions.

Can confirm in 1.17.1.

Direct conversion from pre-1.2 to 1.18+ is no longer possible, so this is no longer reproducible. The only possible upgrade path is via a pre-1.18 version, which will be affected by this bug and therefore corrupt the world.
