I've started a long project in my solo world- destroying the entire central end island, while doing so, I've discovered an interesting issue.
Haste 1 given by beacons gives absolutely no speed increase to mining. Only haste 2 and above has an effect.
Steps to reproduce:
Create any world
build a beacon in either creative or survival, it doesn't matter
obtain a netherite pickaxe with effeciency 5, for best visualization.
place some obsidian to mine with the pickaxe
activate the beacon to have level 1 Haste
Begin mining the obsidian, observe how long it takes to mine
disable the beacon
Mine the obsidian again, observe that it takes the same amount of time to mine as it did without haste 1
Observed Results:
Mining speed doesn't change whatsoever
Expected result:
Level 1 haste should give a 20% speed increase to mining, while level 2 should give 40%

Based on MCPE-50590 it looks like every level of haste used to function as if it were 1 level lower, but the fix to MCPE-50590 only affected haste 2 and higher, and haste 1 was left out. So haste 1 still functions as haste 0, which is nothing.
