Soul sand is not a transparent block.
If you place a light under it and cover it with Soul Sand.. the light does not shine through.
[media]Soul sand is not a transparent block. You can pass a redstone signal through it

Soul sand is not treated as transparent for any other part of the game. It makes no sense for this block to break blocks. Please change it to be treated as solid block for the purpose of falling blocks landing on it or bouncing in soul sand elevators.. having falling blocks break in soul sand elevators or when falling on it isnt in keeping with the game.

I reported this issue on MCPE-120454
two of our players immediately after the update got glitched into nether coordinates that matched their overworld coordinates but immediately after the error wasnt repeated. We've been using portals since and they seem fine.
