I am able to confirm this behavior in 21w43a. Here are some extra details regarding this problem.
The Bug:
Barrier and light particles cannot be seen in survival mode.
Steps to Reproduce:
Obtain some barrier and light blocks.
/give @s minecraft:barrier 64
/give @s minecraft:light 64
Ensure that your particles are set to anything other than "minimal" in order to make these particles visible. (MC-47607 & MC-221558)
Place down multiple of both of these blocks.
Switch into survival mode and hold the light/barrier blocks in your hand in order to make the light/barrier particles visible.
Take note as to whether or not barrier and light particles can be seen in survival mode.
Observed Behavior:
Barrier and light particles cannot be seen in survival mode.
Expected Behavior:
Barrier and light particles would be able to be seen in survival mode.
Also affects barriers, could not find any tickets on that however. Can anyone else?
