Is this the issue you’re describing? And if not, could you upload a video of your own?

I am not sure if this is the same effect.

(speed 2 effect is not required to reproduce)

I see what you mean, you’d like for candles to be treated the same way as torches or iron bars. This is in line with other reports which were considered valid, so I will confirm this and I will retitle the report.
