Game freezes when hovering over Fullscreen button on Mac

Can confirm. This has been an issue for a long time. All apps seem to stop tracking the cursor when the tiling menu appears (which is expected, since the window content is no longer in focus) but most do not outright freeze like Minecraft does. For comparison, the built-in Chess app will continue playing animations while this menu is open, although the computer will stop “thinking” about its next move, which it will not do even if you make a move and immediately switch to another app; and Prince of Persia: Lost Crown, when played in windowed mode, is seemingly completely unaffected by the menu (except that it stops tracking the cursor as expected).
