Does MC-268397 describe your issue?
the issue I reported is the fact that its knockback is reduced by blast protection (which shouldnt happen since its not actually an explosion), the linked bug report refers to the reduction being inconsistent between players and other mobs
I can confirm.
Though, I would argue this would be expected behavior, because a blast (as the enchantment suggests) is not exclusively one made of fire, or from an explosive like TNT. The wind charge blasts the player, therefore it would make sense that blast protection would negative that.
