Shooting a firework rocket into a target won't set off a redstone signal

The bug

When shooting a firework rocket from a crossbow or dispenser into a target it won't give off a redstone signal despite being a projectile.

How to reproduce

  1. Load a firework rocket into a crossbow or dispenser (crossbow is the easiest)

  2. Hook up a target to a redstone lamp or door (I used door)

  3. Fire it into the target
    → ❌ Notice no redstone pulse

A firework rocket is not a projectile. You can't aim it, can you?

Sure you can. It even is mentioned in the reproduction steps.

Currently in 20w11 a rocket delivering a redstone single to a target block is inconsistent, a single sometimes goes through and sometimes not

1place a dispenser 1 block above the ground and load it with fireworks

 

2 some blocks away (when I witnessed this glitch it was at a distance I have not seen it tested at close range) build 2 target blocks on top of eachother with redstone lamps beside them to view the redstone single (some times it will hit the bottom some times it will hit the top and sometimes neither red stone signal triggers)

3 activate the dispenser and eventually some times when nether light pops up should occur, to view this faster build more of the structure in step 2 but add row of dispenser behind the target blocks further out to create a train effect that should show the glitch rather quickly.
