Just had a genuine "game is gaslighting me" moment.

In the new Minecraft update, I finally got wind charges for the first time. While using them in trial chambers, I felt like I was supposed to be able to jump higher, but it wasn't possible, making the navigation of the whole place feel awful.

I then discovered that my blast protection armor's explosion knockback resistance was applying to wind charge knockback, making my jumps much worse. I then looked at the wiki, and found myself at bug report MC-268411 for this oddity, which is "Works As Intended".

This combo of questionable game design and me having the perfect niche enchant to reveal this oddity really disappointed me. I was robbed of a fun first time experience and had no idea I was nerfing myself for a meaningful amount of time.
