Redstone dust and lily pads only just barely float off of their supporting block
21w03a adds glow lichen, which very tightly adheres to the face of the block it's on. Compared to redstone dust and lily pads, this is also likely how tight they should hold on to their block space, but some closer inspection reveals a gap.
How to fix
The resource pack attached to MC-237445 fixes this issue completely, alongside fixing multiple other issues with flat plane models.

The bug
The "flat" and "curved" rail template models are completely identical, and therefore redundant, since models referring to one template could always just use the other.
How to reproduce
- Navigate to the game jar's models/block/ directory
- Open rail_flat.json
- Open rail_curved.json
- Notice how these models have no differences from each other aside from in name
How to fix
The resource pack attached fixes a handful of bugs with plane models (where the plane is attached to a block) in general - as many issues as could be found. This redundancy is one of them - both the "normal" and "curved" rail template models are merged into a single "template_floor_plane" model (which also fixes MC-212626). Lily pads are made to use a tinted version of this model (fixing MC-162803), the shading is removed (fixing MC-198311 and possibly MC-234118), and all planes are made to be distance 0.1 from their supporting blocks (fixing MC-155551 and MC-212256). MC-214700 is also fixed on the side as well due to including a plane the same as those in this ticket.
These template models should also help eliminate any future discrepancies like those detailed and also be of use to resource pack creators and modders who can reference them instead of having to create a new template each time.
A resource pack which only fixes this single rail issue can be attached on request, but the mass fix resource pack is recommended.


Can confirms, would like to add that the lily pad's floating is even more extreme on water blocks (the gap is very visible)
