Snow layers don't drop themselves when mined with a silk touch enchanted shovel

I am unable to collect snow layers using a silk touch shovel. It drops a single snowball as if it was broken without silk touch.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Obtain a shovel of any type

  2. Enchant the shovel with Silk Touch

  3. Break a snow layer of any height with the shovel

Observed Results:
A snowball will drop from the broken snow layers.

Expected Results:
The snow layers should be dropped.

This is still present in 1.19.60 on Xbox One. Would love to get my snow golem-based snow farm running but it doesn't produce much snow thanks to this.
