Similary to MC-89043, but present in release 1.16.
The bug
When a piston moves a slime block players are not always launched.
How to reproduce
Build a slimeblock launcher as shown in the attached screenshot.
Walk over a corner to make the slime block push up under your feet.
→ ❌ You will see that the player bounces inconsistently. I have not been able to discern what changes between successful and unsuccessful bounces. I have tested other entities somewhat and it seems to work for them.

Could the unsuccessful tries be caused by the player falling onto the slime block? (MC-123217)

Thanks for the quick response. Visually, the player does not fall into the block. On a failed attempt, the player is left standing on top of the slime block, and falls when the slime block goes back down.
