The Bug
When you're going down the cave below y=0, you notice that the layer is still stone, and not deepslate.

No, this is exclusively only for Deepslate layers (from y=-1 to the bedrock layers before y=64), which is actually a parity issue with Java Edition. Could be considered a duplicate.

Were you playing the beta? Or just in a normal world because the deepslate generation is not in the main game yet.

It did say that it was fixed in 1.17.40.20, but deepslate still isn’t generating below y0 for me. Unless that feature is specific to the Betas, and doesn’t apply to the Experimental Features for IOS, it’s still a bug

@unknown: This bug will only be completely resolved once these bug fixes are made into the stable release. For now, this bug ticket will remain open since in version 1.17.30, this bug isn't resolved.

I found this because I searched. I have experienced that this is not a bug and is working as intended, because there are areas in my world that there IS deepslate below y 0 but in a lot of areas there is very little deepslate. I have a feeling these are "deep dark" areas that are not generating , and the placeholder block is stone... because there is no diorite or andesite.. or granite. just stone, ores, and deepslate ores.... without the deepslate. 

OH MY... I could not believe my eye's when I just re-opened Minecraft for the first time in month's, and guess what I saw after creating a new world... Now I don't know if this is working 100% perfectly yet, but so far I see the first HUGE amount of progress on this issue since like forever! I am sure its not 100%, however it looks AMAZING to me so far! When you said you could fix this by the holiday's I guess you meant it! Mojang, and Microsoft you have my complement's!!! I noticed that almost if not all of my big issue's are solved, and I am sure there are minor issues here, and there with them, but I have to say given all I am very exited to see what all you do next. Oh and the dressing room accessible from the paused world menu... I love it now I can change uniform in a pinch! LOL If I did not know Mojang better by now though I might even say that you could release this as a dark and spooky 1.18 Halloween update, however Mojang... I know from my point of view there is only minor bug's to be fixed, but I imagine somewhere deep in the code there is a more serious problem lurking in the shadow's, it might just be the Minecraft witch spooking you on Halloween. I am over exited for 1.18 now seeing what all you now have in mind for it! I only wish it was a spooky and dark Halloween 1.18 update. Like Cave's and cliff's update part 2 HOLLOWEEN stile! I know that is an impossibility you'll probably release it as a Christmas snow themed update. I only can dream of 1.18 being spooky Halloween! Hey I just come to pay my respect's to your AMAZING work so far on semi-fixing this issue. I think it is my dream come true, but if other people say this is not 100% fixed you should listen to them first, but if your looking to bring joy into your life I am just complementing you on your progress so far! I am going to enjoy the amazing progress you have made. I can not wait for your next bug update, nor can I wait for the final release of 1.18! It is coming along so well. I doubted you could do this before Halloween, and now I know how amazing yall are, and how hard you work. Keep up the extra-amazing work! Good job! Look at it this way it sounds like you are 95% done with the most major issue of your game! You have my complement's
