Wardens can spawn in narrow places, which causes them to suffocate. You can see this when activating a shrieker around certain area with less than 3 blocks high of air.
Expected result
Wardens wouldn't be able to spawn in places with lower height than their collision box.
How to reproduce
Fill a certain area with stone and only let a layer of air, see the attached picture.
Place a shrieker around and activate it to summon the warden.
See how the warden is able to spawn in those narrow spots.

Reapeared again in 22w19a, sometimes Warden still is summoned at where is 2-block-high only.
Yes, two blocks, not only one.
Might be a side effect of MC-249816.
