Shields should Block 80% of Splash Potions

If stackable splash potions are to be a reality, shields should be able to block at least 80% of their effects because otherwise you would easily get killed by an Instant Damage 2 Potion. Also, in case someone has reason to say that shields shouldn't block potions because it would be considered "overpowered", a shield blocks all physical attacks and a potion contains both a solid and a liquid, so it automatically makes logical sense.

    It shouldn't block all the effects of a potion. I think it should block 80% of the potion's effects so potions are still useful for bypassing shields.

    You can't stack throwable potions but its a solid idea, especially if they aren't gonna fix protection in bedrock.
