Candles should remain in 1.17

Though candles may not be done many are very excited about them. Please include them in 1.17 and update them in the future instead of ripping them out so close to release. Candles are fine as they are. they are mostly feature complete and have few limitations at the moment. If you're going to pull out something pull out the Minecart With Chest it hasn't had its item texture updated since alpha. That item is far less complete than candles imo.

as for possible improvements:

For me personally I would only like the ability to put them on the wall in the future. using a sconce or other item would work just as well as simply placing them on the wall and having them gather together there.

Please give this consideration and thank you for all your hard work.

    Or if they won't put them in 1.17, along with bundles, then they could just combine 1.17 and 1.18 again but release it ALL in the winter as one massive update.

    You don't really know what the developers want to do with them. They probably have some plan for additional functionalities for them, possibly even related to the Deep Dark. Releasing them now might possibly ruin the plans that they have for them, though I can't really tell. There is definitely some bigger reason for them to delay Candles, and we can't truly judge.

    There is no point to adding something for the sake of it now when they already now they need to make changes 3 months down the line to have the feature work as intended

    I heard some rumors about them needing to be functional in Deep Dark. I don't understand why though. There is not even Deep Dark in this update.
