You don't talk to me like that. The block was implemented with no drop, I was just asking why there wasn't redstone (item) without any function so you just don't have an empty block taking up space in your world. Calm down kid.
It's a bummer I really think that mojang Need to do an update for mcpe so that redstone can have drops
