Swimming up on the side of flowing water no longer prevents the player from drowning

Swimming up water, even if you are where you would normally be able to swim up with water without losing air, causes you to lose air. This resulted in an unfortunate death on a server I was playing on. Further testing in survival proved it was not just a server glitch.
To reproduce this glitch:
Step 1: Swim on the edge of water where in previous versions you wouldn't drown. This is best reproduced on a waterfall.
Step 2: Start drowning
Step 3: Drown
Step 4: Despair

May be related to the fix of MC-134755.

This also applies to mobs.
And players and mobs suffocate even when they are at the edge of a water bubble column.

Tested in 20w22a, 1.16-pre1 and 1.16-pre2

I can confirm this behavior isn't present in 20w19a, so the relation to the fix is highly probable.

The fix of that bug seems to have reintroduced MC-185955. Can somebody reopen that ticket please.
