For a comprehensive list of other examples of issues with item positions in the Creative inventory, click here.
All tickets related to item placement in the Creative inventory are valid for cases introduced in 1.16 and later as per this comment. Exceptions exist, which are valid for their own reasons. This ticket in specific should be valid as explicit changes were made to the Redstone tab in 1.17, which is after 1.16.
The bug
The bell is found in the Decoration Blocks creative tab, despite bells being powerable to create sounds As the bell is therefore a redstone component, it'd be expected they would appear in the Redstone tab rather than simply passed off as a decorative block.
How to reproduce
Open the Creative inventory
Locate Bell in Decoration Blocks
Note that this item has explicit redstone functionality
Note that this item is not in the Redstone tab

Relates to MC-217646.
From MC-1797:
After some discussion with the developers, they have now decided to only accept sort order reports if the items in question were added in the Nether Update (1.16) or later.
Can confirm.
