It did not take long to notice that the Warped Wart Blocks on Warped Huge Fungi and the Netherwart Blocks on the Crimson Huge Fungi were not decaying when all adjacent Stems were removed.
How to Reproduce:
{} Simply mine all of the Crimson or Warped Roots from a Crimson/Warped Huge Fungi, and you will find that the Warped Wart and Netherwart blocks do not decay.
This may be intentional, but I'd like to propose an idea with this:
Possibly have Warped Wart Blocks decay and then have a small chance to drop a Warped Fungi. Same goes for the Crimson variant. Possibly have the Netherwart Blocks decay and have a small chance to drop Crimson Fungi and/or a Netherwart. This is probably not the place for recommendations; but as it could be an unintentional bug, I added a possible solution that would probably go over well with the majority of players. This change would allow players to reproduce Crimson and Warped Huge Fungi and further encourage an extended settlement in the Nether.

Most likely intentional and a feature request. Warped and nether wart blocks are not like trees in the overworld.
Alright, based on where Wart Blocks generate in either nether forest biome, I believe that (like leaves) only wart block that was placed shouldn't decay, and wart blocks only won't decay if they're touching the following: Stem, Netherrack, Nylium
I included netherrack and nylium because some blocks of wart generate as part of the terrain. They would be touching netherrack/nylium no matter what. Plus, it was intentional for nether fungus to grow regardless of space, which is why some huge fungus grows into the ceiling of the nether, in which case any remaining wart will touch the netherrack and not the stem. Therefore, for it to decay it ought to stop touching netherrack. Get the idea?
Finally, since nether fungus comes from using bone meal on nylium, good ol' nether wart can come from decaying wart blocks, to finally confirm that crimson forests are where nether wart comes from, and is where nether fortresses get it from (lore wise?). As for warped wart blocks...we'll let Mojang decide that. For those of you expecting warped (blue) nether wart, I suggest thinking about Nether Sprouts, a warped forest root which, based on the very name, might be foreshadowing something. (It's called NETHER Sprouts, not WARPED Sprouts, that's why)
I apologize if this was outside of my boundaries to recommend.
