Minor?

"Minor update" my eye. Even later in the article it says caves have been "completely overhauled". This update also changed some significant things in the game I'm currently playing: In taking over an ocean monument, I had come to rely on the fact that guardians don't fire on axolotls. That is no longer the case.

I'm removing the word "minor". Amatulic (talk) 04:48, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

The part where it mentions that the caves have been completely overhauled is under the "Experimental" section, meaning that it is only available if "Caves & Cliffs" is toggled under "Experimental Gameplay" when creating a world.
The part about Elder Guardians now being able to fire their lasers at axolotls is correct, however this is most likely due to a parity issue or bug fix, as this was the case when Java Edition 1.17 was released (bug fix during development).
I’ve re-added the word "minor", though the version formats page has some information about Bedrock Edition that may consider changing the wording; however, of course, this will require consensus on the community portal. BDJP (t|c) 06:00, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

It is not a minor update.

The update is not minor, it is not major either. If it was a minor update, it would not add extended height limit as an experimental feature, and candles from Java edition. -WR

In Java Edition 1.16.2, piglin brute were added, and the article says "minor". This is due the version formats page. LucasGameszYT (talk)
