If you place a hopper under a bee hive or bee nest and then harvest that bee hive using a dispenser, the hopper only picks up 10-30% of the drops. Instead, the honeycomb or honey bottles shoot out the sides in all directions and end up in the wrong place. Currently, making a lossless bee farm involves surrounding the entire area with hoppers, but the expected behaviour is that a hopper under a bee hive should pick up the resources harvested from the hive every time.

When the items are generated, they do briefly exist within the block, and then pop out of it. Shouldn’t the behaviour of the bee nest work like a container or composter and if there is a hopper under the bee nest, all items that come out of it, whether from dispensers or a player using shears, be picked up by that hopper?

Since the 1.16 update dispensers and have not ejected items inside of solid blocks. When a dispenser faces a solid block the item appears in an adjacent space instead. As a result, some honey farm designs that worked in 1.14 may not work in more recent versions.
The dispensing inside of blocks in older versions sometimes caused desyncing, as in MCPE-58866.
