Fire can no longer be extinguished with a sword or a trident in creative mode

In 1.16, it seems that fire can no longer be put out with a sword or a trident in creative mode.

Scenario: A block is on fire. In creative mode, I click on the fire to extinguish it while holding a sword/trident.

Expected Outcome: The fire is extinguished.

What Actually happened: the fire is still present, and can only be extinguished if I switch to something that is not a sword/trident.

Steps to Reproduce: Ignite a fire in creative mode. Then, try to extinguish it while holding a sword or a trident.

I am assuming this is a bug, because being able to extinguish fires without accidentally destroying blocks or wasting valuable time to switch slots is vital to putting out a fire before it spreads.

Additionally, the release notes never mention that this was an intentional change.
