Please bring back the candle textures from pre-release 2

The candles had a really cool design, but now it's faded, and black, grey, and light grey are missing their orange hues, (I know it's still there, but it doesn't work well) and the colorful candles have a pale, less colorful and extravagant palette. When I say "Bring back Pre release 2 candle texture", I don't mean make a texture like the pre release, I mean revert back to the exact texture. This is not a hate on JAPPA's work, his textures are absolutely amazing, it's just a pet peeve. The black candle was particularly cool, but now it has only got orange on top, and a pale weird white-orange on the side. Please bring back the old textures, Mojang 🙏. I had so many ideas for the old texture ones. They were really cool.

    I'm really sorry if this seems whinny and useless, but I really liked the pre release 2 textures.

    Umm, I disagree. You probably haven't even experimented with them. JAPPA showed pictures of them in builds, and they look absolutely fine. They tuned down the orangey colors in Pre-release 3. In the context of builds it is just a subtle difference that you would only notice if you look more closely, and it looks realistic and has such a cool effect to it that fits with the Candles and can be useful in builds. Candles are really small, so having them change texture when lit is just a small detail that makes them feel more immersive. You can keep them unlit if that's your thing; not like they're the most efficient light source.

    The reason why I would say no to this is that when they changed the textures, it was an upgrade from the old ones. I highly doubt they will revert it, in till then I suggest playing Pre-Release 2 or installing a resource pack in the future for this.
