It describes a parity issue though, which to my understanding is valid. What exactly makes this one an exception?
It might be because bonemealing any one block tall flower in Bedrock spreads more of it, including eyeblossoms. However, this does not happen in Java for any flower, so eyeblossoms should not have a unique case, according to Mojang (as far as I can tell).
As usual, parity issues are treated inconsistently. I don't disagree with the Invalid resolution itself, as this is a design change that would affect more than just eyeblossoms, but recently a few parity issues were considered valid and fixed despite being either older than Buzzy Bees or affecting more than a recent mob, and both being borderline feature request (talking about
MC-269814andMC-215332).
