Expected behaviour:
If you have an item with a max stack size greater than 1, dropping it and picking it back up should make it automatically stack.
What happens instead:
Under certain conditions, the items don't automatically stack and you have to manually stack them again.
How to reproduce:
/give @s minecraft:diamond_sword[minecraft:max_stack_size=2] 2
While holding both items, damage them once
Drop one item from the stack
Notice how it doesn't go back to the original stack
