Deep Warm Ocean biome is unused

Deep Warm Ocean biome is unused. It is caused by the balance of ocean generation in some 1.13 snapshot. I hope this is unintentional.

This is not a duplicate of MC-128260. That one reported that some oceans are extremely rare. My issue is reporting that one ocean is unused and never generates naturally. I do not know if this is WAI or not, but it can definitely be fixed. Because if that biome is unused, why it's been added at all? Fixing this will also be a reason to fix MC-131930

Didn't they remove this in 18w08b?

As @unknown said, this was removed in 18w08b.

Removed deep warm ocean biomes, warm oceans can only be shallow now

See changes in the blog post: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-snapshot-18w08a

As stated in the comment above, there was an explicit mention of the being becoming unused/removed from generation in the changelog. This should be resolved as Works as Intended.

Indeed. Explicit mention from a changelog.

Might get fixed in 1.18 as it generates naturally in 1.18 ES1.

Fixed in 21w37a.
