This is independent of the Minecart Experiments being enabled, although with them disabled many more minecarts are left behind.
Steps to reproduce:
Build the setup shown in the attached video.
Summon a lot of minecarts on one rail (minecart cluster).
Push them in the direction of the soul sand.
❌ Some of the minecarts (three in most cases with the experiment enabled) are left behind on the second soul sand block, but not on any other one - the minecart cluster will be unaffected by the other soul sand blocks in the setup.
