Minecarts with blocks inside them are treated as empty by the game

Bug MC-275365 allows us to see which minecarts the game considers to have a passenger.
Turns out all minecarts with the passenger slot taken up by a block are treated as empty.
This includes

  • Hopper Minecart
  • Chest Minecart
  • Furnace Minecart
  • Command Block Minecart
  • Spawner Minecart
  • TNT Minecart

This doesn't make sense, since these minecarts do have a passenger (the block inside them) so the games internal logic should treat them the same as regular minecarts with passengers.
I don't really know what effects the game applies to minecarts that "have a passenger" besides the speed boost, but it makes sense for all these minecarts to be detected as such.

Reproduction Steps

  • Set minecartMaxSpeed to 1000
  • Build a looped track
  • Place any of the mentioned minecarts
  • Check their speed with the /data get entity command
  • Give them a passenger with /ride command
  • Check their new top speed

Observed Results

  • You can see that if you force them to have a passenger with the /ride command, their top speed increases

Expected Results

  • These minecarts would already be treated as full, and posses all the behaviors of occupied minecarts
