If you run the command summon block_display ~ ~ ~ {block_state:{Name:"chest", Properties:{facing:"south"}}}}} the chest summoned still faces north. The same thing happens with {{type and waterlogged.
This may also affect other block entities.

because when a block_display renders a bed/chest/conduit/enderchest/shulkerbox,
it will convert the block to an item stack, then render the item.
every block_state will be lost at that step. only block_id is kept.

that will also make it render bed s both foot part & head part as bed items has both parts
I can confirm this. And it's related to MC-259990.
