Blocks that require support can generate floating in ancient cities

When checking out the new ancient cities I noticed that where there are ladders, there is the possibility to generate without a backing block behind them, which results in it looking odd and "floating".

Could you please add the coordinates?
-2487, -44, -227
or
-1780, -50, 9630 (this ancient city also has 2 portal frames)
-1662, -50, 9720
-1546, -37, 9660
can confirm
In my testing, it appears that structures within ancient cities randomly have blocks within them removed. Because of this, several blocks that normally require support such as ladders and lanterns, can generate floating and in invalid block states, which I feel is the core problem here.
Below is an example of where this can be seen with soul lanterns. MC-249780 - Soul Lantern.png

This was fixed quite some time ago.
(In that case the future version shouldn't be marked as fix version.)
