When you die at level 30 and return to get your experience points (xp) back where you died at you only get 7 levels back. That's a 23 level lose in xp. Is it a bug or is it intentional?

When the player dies, they drop experience orbs worth 7 * current level experience points, up to a maximum of 100 points (enough to reach level 7), and all of the other experience vanishes. If the gamerule
keepInventoryis set to true, the experience is kept even if the player dies
