From the update diary, I ackonwledged that rules of creature spawn were changed to be more like Java edition. I remember that Java edition spawn hostile creatures in a radius of 24-32 blocks, freeze them in 32-128 and clear them whenever they are out of 128 blocks immidiately.
So, why mobs in BE disappear when they are out of 54 blocks? BE should have a bigger area to hold those creatures. The screenshot shows a slime farm I created in survival mode, from the structure block I see, slimes jump off the edge and diappear at the second layer(with red circle).
This feature is killing some technological players, especially for those server players who have built some big farms to gather resources. I sincerely hope you can consider my suggestion and adjust the disappear area as big as JE. It would be highly appreciate by some technological players like me.

That farm is too big for the time it takes slime to move toward the edge and killed at the end. The rate will be that low comparing to the smaller spawning floors. You don't benefit from building too big and without XP farm. You could make it smaller, your afk spot(s) would be in range and a better rate. 🙂
How about removing that floor? 32x32 of 4 or 5 floors are more than enough to spawn 16 mobs.
The rule doesn't kill technical player like myself. I have built farms within 54-60 blocks range since Bedrock's release.
Edit: Could you adjust spawning floor to 32x16 with the AFK spot on side? The rate should be the same. If not, barely difference. You will be having massive leftover.
