Creeper Griefing

I hate how when a creeper blows up and makes a pit, it only drops around half of the blocks in it's radius. I know creepers are basically walking TNT, so to try and discourage players to farm and use them, half of the blocks they blow up don't drop, but a fix to them would be to let sand, dirt, gravel and maybe some man made blocks (e.g: Bricks) drop 100% of the time, and let things like maybe stone, deepslate and tuff drop around 50/50. I feel that would be balanced and fix the issue of SMPs being wrecked by creeper craters just because noobs join, and mob griefing turned off also turns off achievements. So I feel like this is fair and would make the game much more fun.

    Honestly, I think creepers should really only spawn in caves below sea level. On the surface they are nothing but an annoyance requiring tedious maintenance, and they wind up being far too restrictive of what players can do. For instance, because of the creeper, players are unable to integrate hostile mob spawning into their builds for mini game purposes or general combat fun, because if they did, the creeper would inevitably destroy the build. This is a huge missed opportunity for sandbox game design.
