Latest Snapshot Minecart Stacking, Unknown Impact.

Under the list of known impacts, the latest changeling does not mention potentially the biggest issue, no more Minecart stacking. This was very commonly used for TNT minecart traps, which provide a lot of fun and positively impact the PVP community and many content creators, Grian, a large Minecraft YouTuber, founded a series in which many enjoyed these TNT minecart traps. They are a benefit to community, fun, and interaction within Minecraft.

While I see the need to change this odd feature of minecart-stacking, I feel like minecart stacking is used too often and viewed as too much of a feature to be changed. A game rule that allowed us to turn it back on would be great, since it isn't completely game-changing, but is an important feature for many communities, creators, and players.

    minecart stacking is a big concern for me too, and i'm not sure why it was changed. perhaps to reduce the risk of entity cramming, or as an anti-lag feature? neither of these seem like good reasons to change it, since i don't think this is a very effective method to avoid those. I've attempted some workarounds for stacking tnt minecarts, but they don't work.

    multiple minecarts being stacked is also used in some redstone devices and high-level storage systems, so i do worry about the impact on those, but my main concern is that tnt minecart traps will be much less effective and fun.
