Frost Walker sometimes generates ice when Falling

Issue:
When falling from any height with frost walker boots equipped, there is a possibility for ice to generate when falling. This can cause sudden death if the player falls from a high enough height.

Expected:
Frost walker only works when walking, meaning you have to move from a block of the same level to create the ice, falling, flying, teleporting, riding an entity, should not create ice.

Replicate:
1. Equip frost walker enchanted boots of any level.
2. Fall from any height, (more noticeable from high heights.)
3. Land atop a flat water surface while holding any movement button.
4. Observe that ice is created and you take fall damage.

Other Information
This can also be observed on other platforms such as console. Found on Reddit here. Commenters there explained that this is not the same as Java and is not an intended mechanic.

The Official Minecraft Wiki also states it is not an intended mechanic as well.

I have been noticing a similar issue: When I fall and sink into water while wearing Frost Walker boots, ice forms above my head, trapping me underneath. Happens every time (including on 1.16.1).

Play with friends on the network does not work. The button "Invite friends" to your world is missing! In addition, when assembling items in the recipe book, the crafting recipe itself is not shown. That is, what is needed to assemble an item is unknown. Also, the achievements achieved are retained for a long time or not at all. Another point is the lack of the ability to craft a shield with patterns! I really want a beautiful shield!

This happens, because frost walker works even if you are midair. On java you need to be on the ground, to have the frost walker enchantment work, on bedrock, this is not the case. If frost walker only worked on the ground, you wouldn’t be able to die from fall damage because of frost walker.

Thank you for your report!
