[OUTDATED] Disparity between Sulfur Cube swallowable blocks in Bedrock and Java Editions

EDIT: as of the most recent Bedrock preview, this issue is no longer the case, as they have changed Bedrock to match Java. For posterity (and because I believe removing these blocks - particularly Sand, Red Sand, Gravel and Sculk - from Bedrock’s tags was a poor choice) the text of the issue as it was remains below.

Several blocks which can be swallowed by Sulfur Cubes on Bedrock Edition cannot be swallowed by them on Java Edition.

Below are a list of these blocks and their respective archetypes on Bedrock Edition:

  • Bedrock - Regular (would likely be changed to Slow Bouncy since its addition)

  • Sand - Regular

  • Red Sand - Regular

  • Gravel - Regular

  • Ice - Fast Sliding

  • Reinforced Deepslate - Regular (would likely be changed to Slow Bouncy since its addition)

  • Sculk - Fast Flat

  • Redstone Block - Regular

  • Slime Block - Fast Flat

  • Honey Block - Fast Flat

Many of these blocks not being swallowable by Sulfur Cubes on Java Edition feels more like an oversight than intentional design, especially since it’s different on Bedrock Edition. Since this is a new feature, I believe this is a valid parity issue.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Locate or spawn a Sulfur Cube in Java Edition

  2. Attempt to place one of the above blocks inside it

  3. Note that it will not accept the block

  4. Locate or spawn a Sulfur Cube in Bedrock Edition

  5. Attempt to place that same block inside it

  6. Note that it will accept the block

Expected result: The two editions have the same list of blocks acceptable by a Sulfur Cube

Actual result: The two editions differ in this regard
