The bug
MC-70127 was marked as fixed for 1.20.2 pre-release 1. However, fire is still seemingly affected by the issue.
How to reproduce
Open your F3 screen
Light a fire on a non-flammable block
Wait fifteen seconds
Right click the fire
If "age" does not change from 0 to 1 or higher, repeat steps 2-3
Expected results
The age state of the fire would increase on its own, which would be reported by the debug screen since you're looking at it and right clicking on the fire wouldn't do anything.
Actual results
Right clicking the firecauses the displayed "age" value to instantly increase from 0 to 1, implying that the block's state change on the server was not communicated to the client until a player interaction with this block forced it to update client-side.

Can confirm in 1.20.3
The fire would disappear after waiting 15 seconds. But right clicking after waiting 5-10 seconds increased the "age" from 0 to 1 or higher.

Can confirm: Tested in 24w19b
