[MC-310475] Throwing an ender pearl at the world border, especially from an oblique angle, can allow the player to pass through it

The player can pass through the world border by throwing an ender pearl at it from an oblique angle, then walking outside of it once they have landed on the ground. The chance of being able to do this decreases as the incident angle approaches 90°. See attached video for a demonstration.

As of snapshot 8 pearls thrown directly at the border teleport the player about half a block before it, rather than intersecting it. Can this be resolved as fixed?

That change has not completely fixed the issue. I will edit the description to reflect the issue which currently exists in 26.3.
