Happened to me with resource pack Faithful32x. 
Also affected blocks like Fire, Nether portal, and so on.

Fortunately, restarting whole game works, but it is a hassle.

I don't agree that this is good idea to cap render distance without possibility to change it. There should be possibility to increase render distance over recommended value. Some people may prefer longer render distance above smooth run, or reduce lag by lowering the detail level. Some devices may work just fine with higher render distance than anticipated. And it's useful for particular purposes even if it causes lag. To create printscreens or to overlook the landscape, there is no need to have smoothly running game.

Sterted to happening after 1.16 update on two-layer piston gravity door when pistons are retracted. One layer of sand breaks into items after falling (not 100% sure if upper one, but seems so, because items remains on the top of remaining sand layer). 

I confirm strange behavior on Nintendo Switch in 1.13. , almost sure that I face always South when getting into minecart.
