Wind charges are covered in MC-268411. This one is likely WAI as well.
While this does relate to MC-268411, the effects are far worse for the wind burst enchantment If the player uses Blast Protection armor, the wind burst will be nullified, but if they take the armor off, they'll die as soon as they hit the ground, making any wind burst enchanted mace completely unusable.
Honestly, there should probably be a separate issue regarding the effects of player-made wind charges and wind burst vs. the effects of breeze-made wind charges and the wind charged status effects. These two groups should NOT act the same.
