Netherite Upgrade does not work in worlds where the update_1_20 data pack is ordered before the vanilla data pack
The Bug
Netherite Upgrade cannot be inserted into a smithing table when the "vanilla" data pack overrides the "update_1_20" experimental data pack.
To Reproduce
- Create a new world.
- In the Data Packs menu, add the "update_1_20" data pack.
- Hover over the Default ("vanilla") data pack and click the up arrow.
- Make sure that the "vanilla" data pack stays on top.
- Exit the menu and create the new world.
- Grab a Netherite Upgrade and a smithing table.
Expected Result
You would be able to insert the Netherite Upgrade into the smithing table.
Observed Result
You cannot.

Was the world created before 23w04a?
No, the world was created yesterday in 23w04a
Is the update_1_20 datapack enabled in the world? You can check this by running /datapack list enabled.
Sorry for not giving a response earlier, but yes, all the datapacks are enabled. You can even see the new smithing table interface.
All the other smithing templates work, the only one that doesn't work is the netherite upgrade

https://files.fm/f/j9hyv7d48 - Here is the link to the download page of the world. If needed the coords to my house are 14 66 -21.
I was able to reproduce in the provided world.
The issue for this world seems to be the order of the datapacks. The order of the datapacks can affect the behaviour of the features in those datapacks. The vanilla (Default) datapack should be the first datapack to get the expected behaviour and any experimental feature packs should be ordered after. In this case the 1.20 datapack is ordered before the vanilla datapack and the 1.20 netherite recipes are being overridden by the 1.19 recipes.
[Mojang] elvendorke I tested this with a new world and you are correct. Updating the ticket with this information.
The game is doing what it is instructed to do. Per dev: The vanilla (Default) datapack should be the first datapack to get the expected behaviour and any experimental feature packs should be ordered after. In this case the 1.20 datapack is ordered before the vanilla datapack and the 1.20 netherite recipes are being overridden by the 1.19 recipes.
Edit: You could likely run datapack enable <name> (before|after) <existing> to fix this.
