Created Issue:
It doesn't require you to actually "build" a nether portal to achieve "We Need To go Deeper"
When I finished building a nether portal on top of a ruined portal and entered it, I still activated the advancement "We Need To Go Deeper" even though the in-game description clearly said that you have to "build" the nether portal yourself. Attaching photos doesn't really prove anything, so I won't attach any.

Why is this working as intended? The description is simply misleading. You don’t have to build the portal, you just have to enter one. Compare it to the "The End?" advancement, which simply says "Enter the End Portal". The description of "We need to go deeper" should be changed to something along those lines to make it more accurate and consistent with other advancements.
