Thank you for your report!
However, this issue has been closed as a Duplicate of MCPE-31091.
Appears to affect the chest if block highlighting is used rather than outline, and is probably as a result of MCPE-31091.

I think that’s MCPE-31091. (That bug also affects the hitbox outline when outline selection is turned on.)
This issue is much worse in 1.16.201 Hotfix than what the original images on this report show. The image of the stair attached on 20/Apr/21 shows what it looks like in the current version.
Seems similar to MCPE-90780 and MCPE-31091.










Affects 1.2.11
Partially fixed in 1.2.13 in some cases. All images shown here originally still give the same glitched effect though.
Affects 1.2.14. Partial fix from 1.2.13 seems to no longer be happening.
