I hope this isn't WAI because being able to use a sword to frantically put out fire without destroying your builds in creative was very useful.

It was a bug, that you used to be able to do that. See MC-177763 which duplicates MC-147708

Fire is a block, and swords are meant to not break blocks in creative. Please resolve.

The ticket was already checked by mojang, they didn't think it was WAI

Swords are supposed to break no blocks. Fire is no exception. Please don't post feature requests on the bug tracker. Consider this a warning.
