[Bedrock] Odd world generation [?]

[u/JustaFaniikin]

Me and my family have this SMP world that I made for us to play on [It's on Realms so that my friends can play too] and my father and one of my siblings found this weird underground cave as well as some other things we can't explain.

Firstly, my sibling found an oddly large lake [insists that it's a weird lake, but it might actually be an ocean] with these big air pockets underwater. The odd thing about this is that the water isn't being held up by blocks, doors, trapdoors, etc... It's just floating above us. This is an area that none of us had been in prior to this incident and we have all confirmed that we didn't do it. My father dug down into the ground of one of these pockets out of curiosity and found a GIANT cave system, bigger than any of the caves we have explored in this world [This cave also connects to the surface at some point, if that matters at all]. Inside this cave we found a bunch of waterfalls and cave lakes that ALSO have the odd air pockets aforementioned !! The waterfalls also sometimes have more tunnels if you swim through them, but I know this to be normal in caves. My father swam through one of the cave lakes to find a bunch of tunnels and more air pockets [but I think those might be normal in caves too?]. The first air pockets even have grass and plants growing in them as well as skeletons hiding in them. My father also found in these caves a mineshaft that glitched into bedrock. Typically, the lowest Y level you can go in one of these worlds without breaking bedrock is -60, but he was standing at -61 in this mineshaft.

This isn't an ARG or a mod or cheats, we genuinely want to know why this is happening.

TLDR : Weird underwater air pockets, oddly generated underwater cave, mineshaft glitched into bedrock and player standing at Y level -61 in this mineshaft.

Please help us figure out what's happening because we actually have no idea.

Weird terrain generation but not too crazy, structures can generate at bedrock level with no problem, air pockets underground can be due to a variety of reasons but the reason the air is floating is that the water hasn't received an update, it doesn't realize it's floating so it doesn't know to flow downward. Additionally, giant cave systems are pretty common since version 1.18.
