Stone Swords deal extra damage in the Nether

I've thought about this one for a while. To make the link between why gasts cannot destroy cobblestone, I would imagine that cobblestone is just immediately must stronger in the Nether. It just makes sense.

    Also, wither skeletons wield stone swords.

    It makes no sense. Ghasts just don't have the same blast power as creepers

    The reason ghasts cannot destroy cobblestone is simply because cobblestone has a blast resistance of 6, and the the blast power of a ghast fireball is only about 1(any block with a blast resist higher than 4 will never get destroyed by it).

    It's nothing special about cobblestone specifically. Cobblestone is just used as protection against ghasts more than any other material because it's so easy to get large quantities of it.
