Example a 5 by 6 block area in 1.14 could be drained by 2 sponges by placing one sponge in the middle of the 5 block wide wall on both sides(one block below the surface of water), that is no longer the case in 1.16

I noticed this also while draining a large patch of ocean. I have 5-wide sections, 32 blocks deep and 66 blocks long, I could place a block one below the surface and one away from the wall in the center of the 5 blocks, then put a sponge, then do 3 blocks and another sponge. I could also have 3 blocks in between each layer vertically, so 3 down from the last sponge and another sponge. now I can only have 2 blocks between horizontally and just one block between layers vertically. Hopefully this gets fixed.
