There is an absolutely major bug with Bedrock world generation that causes biome-sized areas to generate in a corrupted state beyond 3,000,000 blocks or so. This effect might take a couple minutes of teleporting or flying around to find, or you might find several of them clustered together.
The split-screen screenshot shows Bedrock Edition alongside Java Edition, to show what the terrain should look like. This has also occurred on two separate machines.
To reproduce, use the world seed "Glacier" (without quotes), and teleport to the coordinates shown within some of these screenshots. To my knowledge, these chasms will show up every time. Given that 1.18 is about to release, I feel this is a pretty critical bug.

No. Don't assume you know who I am or am not without asking first.. I am the actual AntVenom, and I will prove it via Twitter, or any other platform where you can independently verify who I am.

Proof.
Most likely a case of precision errors again. Would require reworking the number handler making it impossible to fix currently. Of course, it could be an infinite/max value but difficult to test without digging into the code. Otherwise, most likely another error with how Bedrock Edition handles numerical values.
@Bent101 I feel like "impossible" is a word that's improperly used. Fixing this isn't impossible. It's just whether or not Mojang feels this is important enough to fix. If a feature doesn't work properly, it should be fixed.

AntVenom, please please continue to leave bug reports. There are very few that actually get listened to, but high profile cases do get more attention, and you clearly know what you are talking about and put effort into understanding the game and it's code. I am aware that this comment isn't constructive by the conventional ruleset, but if Mods will kindly leave it so that someone far more able to contribute on this bugtracker feels appreciated rather than disregarded, AntVenom is that person, and I want him to know I appreciate his contribution.
I will not likely be contributing to this bugtracker in the future, but I hope if anything I have said makes an impact, this does. I'm in way over my head. He isn't.
