Ruined Portals To nowhere ..

As it stands ruined portals if repaired, go to random spots in the nether. And logically that makes no sense. *Someone* built these things with enough importance that they made structures around them. So one would assume there would be something on the other side. Or at least it would connect to a "Ruined Portal" in the Nether. But currently this isn't the case. And I honestly think it should be. The overworld Ruined Portals should connect either to Structures in the Nether, fortresses or bastions, or to other ruined portals, perhaps both. I don't know how their generations would need to be modified in order to make that work, and perhaps the portals that appear underwater in the overworld may need to connect to as of yet unknown structures. (for later updates) But this seems like a logical improvement to these structures.

    They should at least have some structure on the Nether side, Obisidain only occurs on the Overworld side so far, so it would make sense it could be random, but why not dress it up on both ends if you are going to use it. That or the Nether becomes a point tied to another dimension that also has obsidian and the used the Nether as in between hub for a time as they figured out the magic. A dimension that no longer exists or is cut off somehow.

    came here to suggest this, i think they should spawn less frequently and locate bastions. the portals spawn with gold loot and gold blocks which makes me think they're related to piglins. i think the ruined state of the portals also links to how piglins become zombie piglins if they enter the overworld, as if they were banished long ago and these portals are what they used to use to traverse dimensions.
