When a stacked snow layer is broken by a retracting piston, the snow layer drops as a single "stacked top snow" item, not individual top snow item(s).
What I expected:
Snow layers to drop as single items
What happened:
One snow layer with visual effect of all the snow layers.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Extend a sticky piston sideways.
2) Place an iron block on the head of the piston.
3) Place a block on top of the piston head.
4) Place 2-7 top snow blocks on the block.
5) Rapidly retract and extend piston head. I used redstone.
6) While doing this, break the block from step 3.
7) If the snow layer falls on the piston head while it retracts, it produces a glitches snow layer item.
Note: When placing this glitched item, it places a single snow layer.
The two images attacked show:
1) the setup I used
2) the glitched snow layer item in inventory
I am on version v0.16.2

The 922kB image is the "glitched item" image. Here, it is the 6th item in inventory. This was made with 5 snow layers.
The 778kB image is the setup.
Sorry. I am on tablet and cannot rename images.

That is rarely not a glitched item. That snow item that you are saying is represents the amount of snow within the time you placed it. This meant that it is only a secret item. And btw,what is the name of the "glitched" snow that was in your picture?

You don't need pistons to reproduce it. Any blocks that cannot support gravity-affected blocks can break snow layers without turning them into snowballs, like:
Place a torch on the ground.
Place a dirt block on top of the torch.
Stack some snow layers on the dirt block.
Break the dirt block.
