Can confirm. Relates to MC-1448. @unknown you need a source for WAI.

its true i dont have source for WAI, but i thing that this is WAI due to that soul sand its not behaving like full block, and when you are standing next to the water for example, it makes sense that it will make you slower. But it doesnt have to be WAI, thats true
This is WAI I believe as soul sand isn't a full block, its like 1 pixel less or so. So when there is a liquid next to soul sand, the player interacts with both, causing their speed to reduce.
I am also able to confirm this is in 21w37a. Here's some additional information regarding this problem.
