MC-178817"Chain Blocks" don't have a "waterlogged" state
The bug
I created a new world to test out the new 20w16a features and I wondered if the new chain blocks would pop off underwater. I placed a couple of them down and instead of being waterlogged, they replaced the water source blocks with air. This is problematic because if they aren't fixed, this bug could be exploited to breathe underwater.
To reproduce
- Create a new world in version 20w16a
- Find an ocean biome or river
- Get some chain blocks from the creative inventory
- Go underwater and place the chain blocks

This happens with doors as well, despite being in shipwrecks. I know this is part of
MC-125351but it's notorious enough to mention here as an alternative exploit when this gets fixed.lanterns don’t have a waterlogged state either. This could conclude the reason why chain blocks don’t have this state as well.
