Single biome worlds set to ocean biomes generate enormous "islands"

Single biome worlds set to ocean biomes (both deep and regular) generate with huge areas of land. Ocean features like ship wrecks and ocean ruins can generate far above sea level on these "islands" as well.

Argh, I did search before posting but apparently didn't use the correct terms as this is clearly a duplicate of MC-239041

Don't worry, that happens to us the first time we report a bug, just remember to search before reporting.

I think that this is actually a duplicate of MC-236884.

I agree it might be a duplicate of MC-236884, but why MC-236884 was set as Resolved, when the reporters clearly wrote it was still an issue...

It was resolved as "Works As Intended", meaning that the developers have decided that this is now intentional behavior.

OK, the dev could decide that, but I really doubt the issues were really intended.
I'm afraid they decided so, because it was too complicated to correct such weird issues about world generation.
So, in my opinion (and not only mine) the bug MC-236884 as well as this one should be really corrected and not "resolved" by a dodge "works as intended".

It's likely WAI because the terrain generation is now independent of biome. In normal worlds, the placement of biomes depends on the generation parameters. In single biome worlds this restriction is removed, so the terrain generates however it likes even if the biome would not normally be placed in such a spot.

@SeacraftGaming From what I know, the biome generation in 1.18 has rather changed to generate "terrain shape and elevation independently from biomes", but this does not mean that a regular land (as reported in this issue) should generate in an ocean biome.
In other words, the generator changes did intended to concern just "terrain shape and elevation" (I would suppose: "ocean floor" in this case) and not an illogical mess of biomes...
As for me, the reported issue is completely accidental and unintended.

Thank you for your report!
