Lava blocks from "Lava Aquifers" don't get updated when a cave cuts through underneath them

A lava aquifer generated with a cave directly beneath it. At some spots in the cave's ceiling, the lava aquifer and the cave connect. In those spots, the lava abruptly gets cut off and remains floating within the holes in the ceiling.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Generate a Lush-Cave Single-Biome world with the seed "-453190375585913630" in Java Edition Snapshot 21w16a with the experimental Caves&Cliffs datapack enabled
2. Go to 218/-44/277
3. Look at the ceiling towards the southern wall of the cave
Expected result: Lava flowing from the aquifer into the cave
Actual result: Lava remains stationary and requires manual updating

EDIT: After closer inspection, the phenomenon appears to generate at an intersection of lava aquifer + noise case + cave carver.

I am unable to reproduce this issue in 21w38a.

Is this still an issue in the latest snapshot?

I'm unable to reproduce this bug in 21w43a with the steps to reproduce and Avoma's commentary and video.

Avoma

This issue no longer appears to be present in 21w43a. In my testing, I located several lava aquifers, all of which intersected caves at some point, and found that all lava within them appeared to flow correctly.

EDIT: Scratch that. This can still be reproduced in 21w43a but is very uncommon and less severe. This ticket also relates to MC-215139. You can use the following seed and coordinates to reproduce this in 21w43a.

Is this still an issue in 1.18 pre-release 1? fluid propagation was improved

Avoma

Yep, this issue is still present in 1.18 Pre-release 1 despite the fluid propagation changes. You can use the following seed and coordinates to reproduce this in 1.18 Pre-release 1.
