15⁄16 blocks push players into adjacent holes on the same level

While playing in a survival world, I noticed that I was struggling to harvest crops and was constantly being pushed into the water. It turns out that 15⁄16 tall blocks will physically push you into holes that are both adjacent and on the same level as the block.

Basically, even though I thought I would walk normally on the farmland/grass paths/soul sand, my character slid towards the nearest open hole and could barely escape.

Note: This was NOT included in the 1.16 Pre-release 4 update of the game.

 

Recreate in survival:
1. Till/use shovel on grass next to a hole to make farmland/grass path

2. Walk on the farmland/grass path that is next to the hole

3. Your character will slide towards the hole, off the block

Recreate in creative:

1. Place farmland/grass path next to a hole

2. Walk on the farmland/grass path that is next to the hole

3. Your character will slide towards the hole, off the block
