This bug report is a parity issue with Java.
Summary:
In the Java version, the crimson roots have a hitbox that is always centered. And also in the Java version the hitbox a bit more.
Java: 13 pixels high and 12 pixels on the sides (2 pixels off the edge).
Bedrock: ~8,5 pixels high and ~6 pixels on the sides.
Steps to reproduce:
Place crimson roots.
Take a look at the dimensions of the hitbox.
Observed results:
The hitbox is not always in the center, and also has dimensions that do not correspond to the Java version.
Expected results:
The hitbox of the blocks must be the same.
Notes:
In the bedrock version, for some reason, the selection at the base is also not visible.

I can confirm that the hitboxes are different.
