The bug
Stems occasionally generate incomplete, because wart blocks and shroomlights overwrite them. This makes it look illogical and unrealistic.
How to reproduce
Plant a nether tree or go find one of the nether forests
Look up
→ ❌ You should see some trees that are overwritten

Thank you for the attachment, however, there is no need of telling you confirmed it for 20w13a or 20w13b, because these are already in the Affects Versions list.
noneofurbuisness, this is clearly unintentional, because it was already confirmed as a bug even by Mojang
This is related to MC-174325.
Same also applies to twisting vines. Use the seed 6062771279394325138 and run the following command:
/execute in minecraft:the_nether run tp @p -584 84 862 -45 25
Weeping Vines also overwrite stem blocks occasionally in 20w12a.
