h3.The bug
The dried ghast model contains six planes that can only ever be seen by clipping inside of the block. Most models omit such faces, since rendering them has a computational cost for no visual benefit.
h3.How to reproduce
Enter Spectator mode
Clip inside a dried ghast
h3.Expected results
These six faces would not exist.
h3.Actual results
They do.
h3.How to fix
Remove the six lines from the dried ghast model file that define these faces. A fixed model file is attached; Mojang have my full permission to use this if such permission is needed.
h3.Further notes
Unlike most templates, the dried ghast template model does not begin with template_, which is inconsistent; this may also be worth addressing.

I don’t see why this isn’t worth fixing when tickets such as MC-262460 are still open? The fundamental issue is the same - the game is wasting resources on rendering things it should not bother with at all.
Thank you for your report!
After consideration, the issue is being closed as Won't Fix.
Please note that this is not the same as Working as Intended, as this bug report correctly describes behavior in the game that might not be the intended or desirable behavior, but it will not be fixed right now. Sometimes, this is because the issue reported is minor and/or impossible to change without large architectural changes to the code base.
