**Ignorin' that last part, 1) Jean's the last one, 2) the egg she's laid is unfertilized (it's distinct from the "spawn egg"), and 3) the other enderdgragons were wiped out for their elytra years ago (and the ones, other than Jean, that do show up are, well, ghosts).

**Zombie Piglins are prolly fire-resistant, which is weird because they, y'all know, come from somewhere fiery.

** While theres clearly some kind of physical component to it zombies in Minecraft don't seem to be the virus kind we see most of today. Rather they seem to be the evil magic variety and specifically out to destroy life. So they rip up crops, stomp sea turtle eggs, and generally make life awful for everyone. [[/folder]]

** From appearances whoever previously owned the Ancient Cities was trying to access more realms beyond the nether. That framework of reinforced deepslate combined with soulsand was supposed to open a gateway to another place besides the nether and the End. It worked but wherever that was happened to be dominated by the parasitic Sculk. From the look of the city it would appear the residents tried to live and let live, adapting to avoid irritating the Sculk until its mass increased enough to spawn a Warden at which point everyone either fled or died.

[[folder:Mystery of the Ancient Cities]]
* The Ancient Cities in the 1.19 Wild Update is perhaps on of the most bizarre structures. Why is the area lit with only candles? What is with the center podium and the Warden imagery? Was the place designed for Sculk, or was it an infection? Why is the center frame hung over flaming soul sand and composed of reinforced deepslate, a completely unique block with unknown purposes?

** Alternatively because while Obsidian is fragile there is a lot of it in a block meaning a lot of material to chip away and you aren't trying smash it to powder but harvest something useful from it. As a result you need to cut it using something sharp enough to carve through it without completely destroying it in the process.

*** The more you read into this, the more insane it gets. A skeleton is a structure inside of the human body. THAT means that the acid must destroy bone tissue, but not destroy human skin.

* Bedrock usually consists of hard stone like granite and flint. However, since both are already materials in Minecraft, what exactly is Minecraft bedrock supposed to be made of?

* Why did Mojang go with the realistic version of gold, rather than typical fantasy super-tough gold. It doesn't add anything to the game and, if anything, it just makes gold, which is hard to find, useless, save for making golden apples. (Which could be substituted by easier to make potions.)

** Gold mines blocks faster than anything. Golden Carrots are the best food in the game, on par with honey, and golden apples are the only way to obtain Absorption; either is also needed to breed horses, donkeys, and mules. Minecraft does not, in any way, make gold useless by making it realistic.

[[folder: On the Enderdragon]]
* Teleportation is available to every Ender-based creature so far, such as the Dragon egg and the Endermen. The only non-teleporting Ender-species is the Enderdragon. For gameplay reasons, they likely ditched the idea of a teleporting dragon, but InUniverse, this makes no sense. When in battle, does teleportation just never come to her mind?
* Is there more than one Enderdragon? Assuming that Jean mated with a male Enderdragon, but of course, she's the only known member of her species (minus her baby). While assuming that she reproduces asexually, the Ender'''men''' have an equal possibility of being the ones who mate with her.

** Maybe the Bad Omen status effect is a literal curse/spell that Illager captains put on you, letting other Illagers track you down. That would also explain why they abandon their quest for revenge when the effect wears off after 100 minutes.

* Drinking milk removes status effects from the player. This even includes Bad Omen, which is essentially Illager ire obtained from killing an Illager Captain and doesn't physically affect the player. Drinking milk to make Illagers stop hating you sounds very illogical.
