The droprate of saplings don't match for Jungle compared to other saplings despite having comparable ammounts of leaves in the tree structure.
The droprate of all saplings is 5%, except for Jungle which has a 2.5% droprate.
In the past this was likely intentional since large Jungle trees used to have the highest leaf count, but with large Spruce, Cherry, and Mangrove now in the game, this lack of parity has outlived it’s purpose.
