I am able to reproduce the reported behavior. However, please consider changing “non-flint and steel sources” to “redstone pulses,” unless you find another way to reproduce the issue that justifies this genericity.

Can confirm

Intended behavior: The Tnt will drop as an item or simply not ignite.

Can confirm. This also affects TNT that would ignite by catching fire from a nearby fire/lava block or a shot flaming projectile. In Bedrock, in all such cases TNT is not deleted.
