This has also reappeared for me in 1.16.3. all of the hive creation and population was done on a 1.16.3 server, it worked for a double chest of honey bottles, then randomly stopped. 

I had 2 consecutive crashes while flying in a single player survival no cheats world. The world was created after 1.14 release. As md_5 describes. It was while flying in a straight line, loading many new chunks. Render distance: 17

Update* On 3rd reload was able to land and let the chunks load. Maybe relevant, but similar to Morgan Bonds, I was over a large body of water.
