Comparison of the effects of soul sand when covered by various blocks of different heights

The slowing and sinking effect of soul sand is canceled by covering it with blocks of different physical heights. (Note: The snow behind the example blocks is only for visual reference. Physically, a block made from layers of Snow (as opposed to an actual Snow Block) is always 1/8th a full block lower than how many layers it contains, with its first layer having effectively no height at all.)
