This has been a long standing mechanic...

While not a validation source the wiki can help you to understand the basic mechanics of Minecraft.

Breaking a block after vines are placed on it will cause the vines to disappear unless they are still supported by other vines.

Vines will grow into an open space below them. Making a bar a few meters off the ground, and then attaching a row of vines below it is the most efficient way to farm them. When harvesting hanging vines it is important to remember to work from the bottom upwards for maximum yield. Breaking a hanging vine will destroy all sections lower than it, but will only yield one piece of vine regardless of how many pieces were destroyed. Vines will grow at any light level, including in complete darkness.
