This is exactly the same issue as MCPE-56367.

This seems to happen, because the game first gives you the empty bottle and then removes the potion from your inventory, simelar if you have two command blocks and the first runs /give <player> glass_bottle and then /clear <player> potion. If you do that, exactly the same thing happens. This causes the item to be moved in a different slot. What should happen and what happens on java is that the potion simply gets the replaced by an empty bottle.

The 1.16.100.57 changelog mentions this change:

• Fixed an issue that prevented an empty item from being given back after using a food like soup or stew

Does that fix this issue?

@GoldenHelmet from my testing in that version, with a full inventory, glass bottles/mushroom stew will stay in the inventory when consumed, so that particular issue is fixed

however, if an empty slot is available it will change still slots so I don't think this one is fixed
