Mobs walk off open wooden and iron trapdoors or get trapped in them because they think they are closed

The bug

Mobs ignore open trapdoors and act like they are not open. This causes mobs to fall into places they would not usually end up like dying when falling off a > 24-meter opening space, which will kill them, and often traps them in weird places.

Trapdoors are considered a solid block by every mob. So they think they can't fall trough even though the trapdoor is open.

Is this still an issue in the current Minecraft Snapshot 15w46a or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

This issue relates to MC-94115

Confirmed for 16w04a

Is this still an issue in 16w05b?

Farms have been using this for ages now, fixing it would be a terrible mistake.

@unknown, for missing water see MC-205894

Vanilla 1.19.4 never fixed

So we should babysit every villager in game to make sure they don't die? 

This bug gets my pet wolves killed so often when trapdoors are used to decorate bridges and cliffside paths.

If this is intended then why do villages generate with death traps that the villlagers walk into and get stuck in?
