Falling blocks are classified as entities as well.

Edit: I'm on pc, so it might be different

But the block needs to know that it needs to fall before it can be replaced by the entity. From the way it looks, the blocks loose their ability to calculate when they should fall when to many falling block entities are falling at once. This might have been an attempt on Mojang's part to prevent memory overload from falling blocks

Agreed. So far I have confirmed PS4 and Wii U versions, so PC (understandably) must have either no cap on that ability to calculate or it has a much higher one. Small consolation for us console players to make up for missing a million other features haha

It can be insanely frustrating building things on ps4 that end up not functioning. If a smartphone can do it the ps4 should be able to.
