What Was Expected
Bone mealing the bottom of any ocean except Warm Oceans should only produce seagrass. When bone mealing a Warm Ocean, seagrass and corals should be produced.
What Happened
Bone mealing underwater in any biome produces corals.
To Reproduce
Bone meal the underwater floor in any biome except Warm Oceans. You'll still get corals.

affects 1.16.220. This bug is easily provable by bonemealing the ocean floor (or any body of water) on java edition, only seagrass will appear unless you are in a warm/deep warm ocean.
Bonemealing any body of water on bedrock edition will produce coral. biome doesn't matter at all. You can create a two deep hole of water, bonemeal it, and get coral. even if you are in a plains or something.
This needs the vanilla parity tag
Reproduced in Bedrock Edition 1.18.31
Steps to reproduce:
Created an artificial body of water above a plains biome
Seed: 1308954611
Added a 3x6 dirt patch to coordinates (87,114,-357) through (92,114,-355)
Built 3-tall glass wall around the outer edge (86,115,-358) through (93,118,-354)
Filled glass tank with water
Applied bonemeal to wet dirt blocks in the sky above the plains
Observed Results:
Seagrass and all types of live coral appeared.
Expected Results:
Based on the above text of this bug report, this water not being in a warm ocean biome should only have grown seagrass.
It is intended as there is a chance that if you use bone meal underwater, coral will grow.
