What does "TNT and TNT minecart explosions now have 100% drop rate" mean?
That no blocks or mob drops are destroyed in the explosions?
So one could use TNT to mine diamond ore with no loss of diamonds?
That bothers me more than it should but I really don't like the idea, it's WAY unrealistic.
What part of blocks floating in mid-air is realistic?

I don't considering their post anywhere in the realm of a constructive critique of anything when they are telling people to either put up with it or go play something else.

Out of curiosity, how wouldn't it "feel right" in survival?

These are player's opinions, and everyone is allowed to voice their opinions about the update in this thread without someone complaining about it.
Also, calling other people salty ... pot, meet kettle, it's black.

It would be helpful in survival when you're stuck in the ocean and literally cannot see what direction the blocks are facing, and you are basically going in a really big circle.

Ocean biomes are survivable due to the existence of islands, shipwrecks and trees spawning on some of the islands. Deep ocean biomes are very hostile to attempt surviving in one due to the lack of islands. Deep Frozen Ocean biomes are almost as bad as non-frozen Deep Ocean biomes except the bonus chest can actually spawn on an iceberg, but that might take a few tries to actually get a seed where you're close enough to an iceberg for the chest to spawn. In theory, you could survive without the bonus chest in a Deep Ocean biome if you could gather enough gravel/sand by finding a shallow enough area you could dive down to so you could start excavating a shipwreck if you could find one, but that's a big if considering it only takes one drowned spwawning with a trident killing you when you're looking for a shipwreck to begin with.

Your main option is to find a shipwreck you can get wood from. Most provide a decent amount of wood to get started with and chests if you can get enough material to start ripping wood out of the shipwreck safely. It's easier in an ocean only biome world only because there are islands you can dig out if you don't have any trees anywhere close by.

In Deep Ocean Buffet I'm not sure there are any islands to actually spawn on, Ocean Buffet does have islands, and Frozen Deep Ocean Buffet has icebergs you can spawn on, in or under. Would be nice if a bonus chest could spawn above the top layer or in the top layer of the ocean to give the player something to stand on at first in deep ocean spawns in worlds that have no land to spawn on anywhere.

If the spawn point is in an Ocean/Deep Ocean biome and there is no land, does the chest not actually spawn? I've tried a few different seeds in both 1.12.2 and 1.13.1 using the customized map option (1.12) and Buffet > Ocean/Deep Ocean (1.13) and haven't seen a bonus chest when turning the option on during world creation. I've been attempting to run a Deep Ocean Buffet in 1.13, but wanted to use the bonus chest option for a kick start because it's pretty excruciating.

I don't believe I was asking for advice, I was giving my opinion which still stands : I find them irritating and unnecessary especially in ocean biome worlds (worlds that generate only oceans.)
Reading posts helps with communication, I believe.
Suggestion : don't give unneeded advice to people not asking for advice.

I put them up there with Creepers. Phantoms are way worse in ocean biomes where the likelihood of being able to sleep is almost nil because you probably won't ever be able to make a bed for a really really long time to the point where I just want to remove them from the game. Sadly mods haven't been updated yet for that, from what I can tell.

No, the generator does not understand what groups of letters are beyond something to turn into numbers to throw at the RNG. Anything that resembles what you used for the RNG seed is simply a coincidence. For example, ISLAND does generate a world where you start on an island void of any trees in the middle of an ocean, but only due to a coincidence that when the RNG converts that group of letters to -2126057963 Seed and generates that world.

How many cows are in the pen and what are you using for walls? Too many animals in a pen can push them into the walls.

The minecraft.jar file is the executable for Minecraft, so replacing that file with with a different version will change the actual executable file to the version you want, so you can downgrade to whatever version you want as long as you have the associated .jar file. I have .jar files for most of the different Minecraft versions back to Alpha I think.
