Destroying a creaking heart doesn't drop any kind of XP

If you destroy a creaking heart without silk touch, the block will not drop any kind of experience, despite this being considered as a "mob kill" (i.e. Granting the player the "Monster Hunter" advancement).

How to reproduce

  1. Find a naturally generated creaking heart, or place one.

  2. Break the block in survival.

Expected result
The block would drop experience.

Observed result
The block doesn't drop any kind of XP, despite "killing" the creaking (if spawned).

My reasoning here was that creaking hearts act similarly to a spawner / shrieker, or any mob when killed by the player (breaking the block also grants you the advancement as I noted in the description), all of them which drop xp, so I see this more of an inconsistency than a feature request imo.

Can this be reopened? I've already provided enough reason in my previous comment. And I'd rather have the team classify if this is a valid bug or not.
