MC-275969Minecarts can phase through blocks directly above an ascending rail
Minecarts can phase through blocks directly above an ascending rail despite there being no space at all. This has happened in earlier versions of Minecraft, but now that features that have to do with minecarts phasing through blocks are being removed (see MC-275758), I thought that this should be fixed too (for consistency).
Fixing this bug might break some contraptions, but I'm relatively sure that its behavior can be replaced by something else.
Steps to reproduce:
- Build a layout similar to the one shown in the picture.
- Place a minecart on the right part of the track.
- Push the minecart.
It should now phase through the block above the track.
What I expected to happen: 
The minecart should rebound from the block and continue in the other direction.

Thank you for your report!
After consideration, the issue is being closed as Won't Fix.
Please note that this is not the same as Working as Intended, as this bug report correctly describes behavior in the game that might not be the intended or desirable behavior, but it will not be fixed right now. Sometimes, this is because the issue reported is minor and/or impossible to change without large architectural changes to the code base.

Mojang giving up on fixing minecarts after only 2 snapshots? 💀
No, this is something that is probably used in many contraptions, so I understand why they won't fix it.
