Endermen don't necessarily drop their held block

When summoning endermen to hold blocks they cannot normally hold, killing them seems to not necessarily drop the block in their hand, instead reverting to whatever that block would have dropped had it been mined with a silk touch pickaxe. Examples being blocks like suspicious sand and gravel, as well as bedrock not dropping anything, potted plants dropping a pot and a plant seperately and infested stone dropping regular stone

Enderman drops use the loot tables of the carried block. Blocks such as bedrock do not have loot tables, so nothing drops.

I went to check and this wasn’t the case in Release 1.9, the first version in which Endermen started dropping the blocks they held. Was this a bug back then? I assume Bedrock didn’t lose its loot table since.
