Before the sponge is placed, the water can pass through the transparent box. And can't passed through after the sponge place (the water in this area will not pass through the transparent box in the future).😞

Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Working as Intended.
You can place water in things like trapdoors (non full blocks) or place trapdoors in a water source-block and they will not remove the water source-block. Both will occupy the same space (water source and trapdoor).
Water will not automatically create source blocks in a occupied space. This is in place to prevent breaking worlds or contraptions.

Water only flows through transparent block if it is a water source. The sponge probably removed the water source on the trapdoors. Try using a water bucket on the trapdoors.
