In the past I made a construction and with a lever I energized a sea lantern with iron trapdoors around it to close them, today I went to repeat the process and it didn't work, the sea lantern block is acting like the glass block and is not able to be energized like before.
I can't say how long ago it started to be like this since my construction is already a few years old
Steps to reproduce:
Place a sea lantern block and then place adjacent iron trapdoors.
Place a lever on top of the sea lantern block (or any other activation method) and activate it.
Expected result: the iron trapdoors will close.
Actual result: the trapdoors do not close.
This is working as intended, see MCPE-187502.
