It should behaviors exact same to when you throw snowball to them. if a snowball can blow up end crystal, then /damage should too.
Hello,
I think it's intentional, as siiftun1857 mentioned. Snowballs don't cause damage but are still effective against these types of entities (item frames, end crystals, ...). Here's a video to illustrate (too large to attach as a file):
Therefore, I believe it's WAI (working as intended).
But they behavior like that before
/damage
exists, they are destroyed upon recieved any damage regardless damage value. A snowball that do 0 damage can destroy End Crystal too.
