You do not have to include "Addons/Resource Packs: No", as bug reports have to be made on Vanilla Minecraft.
This is actually a feature. If you had checked that this “bug” existed in Java Edition. You'd realize that this is actually a feature of the mace. Java mace combat is comprised of using the elytra as a means of combat paired with the mace. In the latest training Dream video, he's training how to use the mace with the developer of the mace Ulraf. Ulraf, who is the creator of the mace, the person who designed it stated that using the mace paired with the elytra is a feature. This bug should be flagged as “working as intended”. Here are some links showcasing the mace being used this way after the 1.21 Tricky Trial update:

(I don't mean any hate, this is simply to correct)
@Onwaba Twaleezy It’s not a possible to be intentional behavior, Because in Latest Java edition vanilla 1.21.5 and 25w20a Snapshot will not have a falling increase applications since was removed in 24w13a Snapshot. That video has a modified versions of the game.
