Glow Lichen can generate underwater whilst not in a cave

The blog post states that glow lichen spawns in caves, but it can spawn in Ocean biomes too.

As of 21w15a - from crude observations - this seems to be happening less frequently compared to previous snapshots

Reproduce for 21w20a

Can confirm, but not sure whether this is intended or not.

Can confirm in 21w05a.

Can confirm in 21w05b.

Will add that it is a negative value for game play.  Previously when exploring oceans, light occurred in rare places to indicate magma or ruins.  Now light is everywhere and it is extremely difficult to find ruins, and the oceans are unnaturally bright.  Glow lichen should be a rare occurrence in oceans.

@unknown & @unknown please stop this conversation here. This report was reopened due to that fact that 1.17 snapshots are still being developed and no sufficient evidence that this was fully fixed in 21w16a. Remember this is not a forum to state grievences. If you wish to discuss this please head over to the subreddit or discord

Can confirm in 1.17.1 Release Candidate 1.

Also happens with dripstones

This seems to still happen, albeit very rarely, in 21w37a.
