[MC-193949] The ender dragon will get confused if a water bucket is placed in the middle of the map

When placing water above the altar, the ender dragon is unable to perch and remains in a loop of spinning around the altar.

Steps to reproduce

Enter the end

/execute in minecraft:the_end run tp @s 0 100 0

Place water above the altar. I used the following setup to consistently replicate it. Do not place water directly above the center of the altar as that leads to MC-207174

Wait until the dragon perches and observe that it starts spiralling around the altar instead of landing above the center block.

I have tried reproing this, with water streams on different heights and on all sides of the portal, either on at a time or all at the same time. No repro.
Is there any additional information you can add? Perhaps attach the world where this happens?

This happened on a world when I was designing a video on creative mode to use for a spectator video. I do have the world, but unfortunately it would not allow me to send it due to it being about 80mb. It was several months ago when I made this, so I cannot recall much.

Alright. I managed to reproduce this eventually using two streams.
Wasn't easy though! 🙂
