Unlike every other container, Copper Chests and every variant reference the “minecraft:chest” in the Block Entity nbt data “id” field.
This makes it hard to get what Block Entity the player is looking at for datapacks (and probably an issue in many other cases).
Reproduce:
1. Place down any Copper Chest
2. Run command /data get block <copper chest position>
3. Returns nbt data with the id field being minecraft:chest and not minecraft:copper_chest (or any other variant)
