Again unable to crouch in the air

The issue was present in previous versions and was fixed, but now it is reappearing.

 

Steps to reproduce:

1: Use any Android device, launch Minecraft and enter any world.

2: Make sure the game mode is creative.

3: Place any interactable blocks on the ground (choose a barrel as an example here).

4: Holding any block, crouch in the air and tap on the top surface of the previously placed barrel.

 

Expected behavior: The player places a block on top of the barrel.

Reality: The player opens the barrel.
