When crafting glow Sticks (Education Edition Only) on the Nintendo Switch version of Bedrock, I stumbled upon a item that the devs forgot to finish. When you craft a Light Gray Glow Stick, it would appear flashing in you invetory in many different shades (depending on if you have other Glow Sticks in your invetory). When you hold the item in your hands, it displays a placeholder black and purple texture similar to a unused block in the game. It also displays a placeholder name in the game aswell (item.glow_stick.silver.name). It doesn't appear appear to actually break the game, but it can be confusing in a chest or inventory due to it changing colors depending on cursor and other Glow Sticks. The first image I dropped, (Excuse the Potatoes) Shows the Light grey Glow Stick in my hand, with it''s placeholder texture and name. The second image shows my cursor hovering over the light grey Glow Sticks, which were feeling pretty purple. If I were to move the cursor, it would violently flash different colors depending on what's in my chest. (Edit: I noticed another Glow Stick Graphical error, works on almost every Glow Stick this time. When you do a "Quick Move" on one, a strange pixelated blur appears that looks like a chunk of a Iron Sword. I added an image showing this aswell.)

A recent patch replaced the placeholder texture with the red glow stick texture.
This issue isn't completely resolved yet, but there is still some progress.

Items you see in the background, such as balloons and different colored torches can be obtained in the "Education Edition" mode enabled in the options.
It only requires hours upon hours of pain, suffering (and science) to obtain. This is due to ALL of the education edition excusive items (Apart from the lab tables) being unobtainable through commands and creative mode.
There are some awsome items that should be craftable in the base game. (Such as Underwater TNT, Balloons, Hardened Glass, Ice Bombs, Super Fertilizer, Sparklers, Glow Sticks, Colored Torches, Underwater Torches, Heat Blocks and the best item of all... Bleach, of course!)
It's a shame many users miss out on these items due to you being forced to do literal rocket science to obtain them...
Apart from me enabling this mode, the game has not been tampered in anyway. There is no resource or behavior pack.
Anybody can get these items themselves (With a guide of course).
