As of the fourth snapshot of 26.4, Brittle Ice is one block, and its stage of breaking is stored in the block data.
Having each stage be its own block like how anvils do would allow builders to build with different stages of Brittle Ice without having to inconveniently jump on it every time, which is great given the potential minigame opportunities the new block introduces.
Right now, mining Brittle Ice with Silk Touch even on its last stage and replacing it resets the age to perfectly new, which doesn't really feel right to me. If you could hold Brittle Ice on its last stage or two in your inventory, it would be great for builders and people who battle in-game, since they could make one-use bridges when being chased by another player.
