    If you look at the Noise Caves Feedback pinned in this category, you'll see that most people think the 21w07a caves are nerfed way too much and the 21w06a cave generation was no problem. I'm personally disappointed because they nerfed the noise caves without adding anything to take its space. Ideally, we should have many large and small caves to take advantage of the expanded depth.

    Because it needs to feel more rewarding. In snapshot 21w06a, you literally used to go across huge caves all the time. They have already said in Minecraft Live that they will be rare, and that makes the caves themselves a lot more special.

    Besides, the generation itself did not change, they were only made rarer.

    They never "Took it away" they made it rarer because it exposed like all the ores and they said the caves were supposed to be rare anyways, it's still there.

    It is still very early in the snapshots when it comes to cave generation. They have stated before that noise caves will be rare. There will definitely be many variants of smaller caves, including mesh caves, for instance, that will take up that space and will be more interesting. Be patient and give the developers a break.
