Placeable non-mob entity reach is shorter than block reach

Summary:
You can't break placeable non-mob entities from the longest distance of which you are able to place them at a block.

Since these entities are similar to blocks, this inconsistency may confuse players not understanding the differences between blocks and entities.

Affected entities:

  • End crystals
  • Boats
  • Minecarts
  • Paintings
  • Armor stands

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Place down a painting in survival mode by standing 5 blocks away from it
  2. Try to break it from that distance.
  3. Stand 3 blocks away from the painting and try to break it.

Observed result:
Whilst these entities can be placed from 5 blocks away, they cannot be broken unless the player stands 3 blocks away from them.

Expected results:
The breaking/placing distance should be the same and not inconsistent. This isn't an issue in creative.

Original description:
I cannot break paintings from 6 or more blocks away in creative but 4 or more blocks away In survival. And it's not because I cannot reach them because it's only breaking them, not placing them and I should be able to reach the paintings because I can reach anything else from more than the distance I can break the paintings so I should be. Able to reach the paintings and I can only do it on mobile and this is the link to the screen recording https://photos.app.goo.gl/dvRQC3aJzP73gAYi6
