The bug
All sapling types (six traditional saplings + mangrove propagule) are members of the #minecraft:mineable/axe block tag. Despite this, all sapling types can be broken immediately. As the #minecraft:mineable/axe block tag only exists to control block mining speed, saplings being in this tag is completely redundant.
How to reproduce
Place any or all saplings
Inspect each sapling in the debug screen
Expected results
As they are instantly breakable, they should not be a member of any #minecraft:mineable/ block tags.
Actual results
They are all uselessly part of #minecraft:mineable/axe.

If this is invalid, why is MC-230411 not only still open, but triaged outright? Either this should be open, or that ticket should be closed with the same justification. Having an instant-breakable block in a tool breakability tag bloats the F3 screen and is confusing for datapack makers.
I can confirm this behavior, though this could be intentional.
