The bug
I expected the shulker to die of void damage. Instead it can stand on the void.
How to reproduce
Put a shulker in a boat
Row the boat into the path of a minecart rail
Run minecart through the boat and into the void
→ ❌ Shulker teleports to the top of void without a block under it

I was able to recreate this, a simple way to recreate is by flying away from any land in the end and summoning a shulker. It will stand in the void as if there were a block below it.

Relates to MC-206707.

Can confirm in 21w42a.
Can confirm in 23w43b, although (if this holds any bearing on the issue's status) the shulker is now killed when sitting on top of the void air:
