Falling off a carpet or experiencing brief falls, less than 1 tick, never results in fall damage, regardless of the minecraft:generic.safe_fall_distance attribute

When falling off a carpet, you never incur fall damage, regardless of the generic.safe_fall_distance attribute setting. This behavior may be intentional. It appears to be due to the fall taking less than 1 tick, which also explains the anomaly mentioned in MC-2404: "Oddly, carpet is not affected, despite it having a slightly raised hitbox.

Steps to reproduce

1. /attribute @s minecraft:generic.safe_fall_distance base set 0

2. Place carpet
3. Go into survival mode
4. Fall off the carpet

Observed outcome: You do not incur fall damage, even when the minecraft:generic.safe_fall_distance attribute is negative.

Expected outcome: Fall damage should be incurred.
