The bug
When you push an amethyst cluster off of its supporting block with a 1-tick pulse (such as from an observer), using a sticky piston, the amethyst crystals don't drop, whereas if you push it off normally they do.
Steps to reproduce
Place a Sticky Piston
Place an observer facing into the piston
Place an Amethyst Cluster in front of the piston
Power the observer
→ ❌ Notice how the amethyst crystals do not drop but instead, the block just gets deleted
Alternate Method
Set up the situation in the attachment
Place a lever on the side of the sticky piston
Flick the lever
→ ❌ Notice how the amethyst crystals do not drop but instead, the block just gets deleted

Hey there!
Just to let you know, the issue has already been reported and is a duplicate of MC-203561
@Amster Plays did you use a normal piston? it has to be a sticky piston to work, also make sure that the amethyst cluster is on the ground, rather than the piston. I've attached a video showing it off:
[media]@Avoma This not a duplicate of MC-203561 as that a glitch resulting duplication of the crystals whereas this is referencing a situation in which the crystals do not drop. I've attached a video which should hopefully clear things up:
[media]I copied the setup and activated the piston and the shards dropped for me
Yep, my bad, this isn't a duplicate. Can confirm in 21w03a.
@Justin Zheng make sure it's a sticky piston, the cluster is on the ground (not the piston), and make sure you activate it with rather an observer, or by placing the lever on the side of the piston itself. (there are other methods but these are the most consistent)
Can confirm in 21w05b.
This issue was fixed in 21w11a.
Cannot confirm; dropped items for me.
